Pros

Open and inviting work environment with room to grow in my chosen field with support for insurance education. This company encourages work life balance, commits resources (time and money) to our communities, and has a great benefits package.

Cons

PTO accumulation is a little slow after the initial 15 days provided, i.e. earn a day a year after 5 years.

Thank you for the excellent review! We’re especially happy to read your note about support at Umialik. We encourage continued development and aim to create an environment that allows our employees to grow in their careers. To your note about PTO, employees start accumulating an additional day after their third anniversary at the company. We appreciate your feedback and your suggestions to make Umialik an even better place to work!

Pros

Unlimited possibilities and room for growth and development. Great benefits, frequent recognition (and extra opportunities) for those who put in the extra effort, friendly coworkers, approachable management, AWESOME agency partners, overall positive, accommodating, and rewarding environment. The company really cares about our community and encourages employees to get involved.

Cons

The company is growing faster than staff count, so meeting deadlines can be stressful.

We’re glad you feel there are exciting opportunities at Umialik. We agree! We believe our employees are a big part of what makes Umialik a great place to work. Thanks for being a member of the team! We also appreciate your feedback on areas where we can improve. As we grow, we will continue to monitor assignments throughout the company to best utilize skills and create manageable workloads, as well as develop new opportunities and positions. In addition, while we are proud to allow our employees to carry over up to 30 days of PTO, we are always looking at how we can better our PTO structure and will keep your comments in mind. Thank you for your review!

Pros

The money and benefits are great. They pay for education, more than just job education. They will also help pay for college.

Cons

It is very competitive and coworkers will take advantages to sabotage other employees.
