Pros

Kevin Steiner (President) is a great leader. Benefits are above average and pay is fair. Facilities are also very nice and secure.

Cons

The CL Underwriting department has changed dramatically. Turnover is very high due to employees being overworked and under appreciated. The company is expanding way to fast and cannot staff the department properly to keep up with the growth. Also, opportunities for advancement are unfair due to extreme favoritism and politics. Lastly, management lacks empathy.
