Pros

401K and health insurance. Not one other thing. This company has gotten progressively worse each year.

Cons

Some truly awful people work here. They were the rudest, snottiest people I have come across. HR is worthless, and does nothing to stop issues that have been brought to them by multiple people from the same department. Managers are equally poor, many having no managerial skills or experience. Promotion are based on cliques and youth rather than experience, knowledge and professionalism. Bonuses get smaller each year and raises are minimal. Go elsewhere if you want to be happy in your career.

Great culture, people are helpful

Over-engineering in making decisions. Lots of hoops to jump through to get things done.

Pros

1. 12% 401k match 2. Amazing co workers in the trenches but this is rapidly changing as people look for the exits.

Cons

1. Management - the new management team has a maximum personal bonus / profit only mindset. Cost cutting reigns. 2. Constant layoffs. No job is safe. 3. Company has offshored many jobs to India and is in a race to move key underwritering, engineering, claims functions to India as well. Overall, it feels more like a private equity gut job than a publicly traded company.
