Pros

Work life balance, nice co-workers and managers. Comfortable work environment. Company is trying to make changes lately for the better. Education re-imbursement. Covers cost of certifications. Free fruit, coffee, tea.

Cons

#1 Pay is just below-average at best, especially for a company doing pretty well. No stock/profit sharing. Lateral moves are common at times. Decent turnover from low pay.

Pros

The company has a good culture and the people are nice.

Cons

Got the little things right, but not the big things

Pros

I worked at a division of Verisk located in Texas. The office was nice with a fairly casual dress code. They were great at doing little things like monthly employee relations events, a program to recognize colleagues for going above and beyond, and closing early prior to holidays. The pay was good given the area. You also have access to all open job listings across the entire company.

Cons

Most of the employees have been working there for 10+ years and most of them doing the same job for that amount of time. As a result, management was really hands off and put very little effort into working on career development with anyone. It was more like they just let everything run on auto pilot. Also, they tend to hire from outside to fill open management positions. Several shockingly sexist comments were made by two members of management in my presence on multiple occasions. I couldn't believe such things still occur in a professional environment in 2015. If you want a job doing the same thing day after day with little career growth or development, then it's a great place to work. If you are ambitious and want a company that offers a career path, you may want to look elsewhere.

Thanks very much for your feedback. We appreciate your advice to management and, in fact, in the last 9 months or so, have been working closely with Executive Management to enhance managerial competence across the enterprise. For example, we are currently planning a series of training programs for all managers based on the acclaimed book, The Extraordinary Coach, Our focus continues to be on developing our culture based on the three tenets of The Verisk Way: Serve, Add Value, and Innovate. Of course, your report of inappropriate comments is very disturbing and we have already begun an investigation and education program in our Texas locations to ensure that all employees are treated with respect and dignity.
