Pros

Whenever I face either a challenge or a victory, however small or large, I feel as though I am part of something larger than myself. The support of peers, management and senior leadership is astounding, and I always feel safe, supported, and able to act. There is an understanding that our resources are imperfect and evolving, and every employee is encouraged to voice their perspective. I've only been here 2 years, and have witnessed so much innovation and change. The sense is strong that we are committed to constant improvement.

Cons

The work environment needs some updating. The space feels a bit stuck. I'm excited for the workspace overhaul that is underway, and hope it affects things like air circulation, non-environmentally friendly facilities, and drab optics.

Pros

I am still waiting to find out.

Cons

The amount of work and the time you have to do it in is very unbalanced. Management is pretty much non existent unless its about approving time. You have mentors but they are over worked as well. managers have no idea how to do your job, therefore they cannot help or make suggestions on how to manage the workload. The pay is not competitive.

Pros

Great organization and great people. Good benefits and retirement. Desire to integrate new technologies

Cons

Bureaucratic! A big lumbering insurance company that typically promotes from within. Too risk averse.
