Pros

1 free monthly sushi lunch

Cons

Cyber underwriting company... but no experience or expertise of cyber or underwriting! CEO and no.2 decide everything but completely out of touch with the company + only listen to/care about 4 or 5 people everyone else replaceable. Tears in the office always, everyone scared for their jobs - best + well liked people are suddenly gone - poached, quit, let go - and company goes into denial saying they were offered $$$$ somewhere else, got homesick, bad fit, moving overseas, blah blah like we dont talk to each other. Market is realising the pitch is BS theres no cyber coach or expert team Career opportunities. no training + boss has favourites Compensations and benefits. worst in industry Culture and values. staff are replaceable Diversity and inclusion. seniors are all older white men Senior management. what management Work / life balance. you must love the company + sacrifice 1st born for it

Pros

Market share - the company was selling this line when established players weren't

Cons

Had the chance to lead the market but has failed even to keep up. Workloads are punishing and retention is a major problem which makes it worse. Feedback to leadership is dismissed and staff made to feel bad for raising issues. Poor treatment of staff and dishonesty about has led to atmosphere of mistrust. When decisiveness, leadership, expertise needed there's no sign of management but when something goes well they suddenly appear to credit-steal. CEO is either blind to it or chooses to reward loyalty over skill and hard work.
