Pros
- Training sets you up to be successful. - You can easily move up if you impress the right people. - Pension and 401k match - Decent work life balance, my office management says it will be there tomorrow and you aren’t looked down on for leaving at your scheduled time. - Co-workers are the best people I have worked with. Little to no drama in our office. - Develop good relationships with some Insureds who actively try to help you do your job. - Pay is pretty standard for industry, but starting to fall short due to inflation.
Cons
- Upper management is completely out of touch. Trying to run all services office like it’s Owatonna in the 1980s. - No WFH option. Allowed as an “on needed” basis, but they allow it for some people more than others. - Huge lack of diversity. It’s a white conservative old man’s club. Upper management consists of few women and POC. Service offices aren’t much better. - People retiring in droves right now. Federated fails to acknowledge the changes that need to be made in order to attract and retain new and young talent. - Terrible response to COVID. Forced back to the office in the height of the pandemic. Their soul reasoning was “our culture”.
