      Be Wary

      Underwriting analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      PTO and 401K benefits are strong, remote work is increasingly possible for employees, people are friendly and accessible. You are also given early responsibility, whether or not you're ready or trained, this can be a pro or con depending on your personality.

      Cons

      Lack of consistent strategy, insane turnover, frequent layoffs and restructurings, lack of "soft perks," limited upward opportunity, you will be expected to work much more than is stated, poor training and wanting upper-middle management. Antiquated technology, loss of institutional knowledge and understaffing are also issues.

      THIS IS NO PLACE A BROKER WILL WANT TO STAY

      Field advisor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Excellent Health Benefits. Sign-Up Salary...

      Cons

      This is a captive company. They want to control EVERY aspect of your career. You are only permitted to sell VALIC products and other lines ONLY through their channels. Regardless of how hard you work or what you build, VALIC makes it clear that they OWN your business. One broker I know who was with them for 25 years was terminated. Why? Because VALIC imposed requirements for selling a certain volume of their Variable Annuities and he was unable to accomplish this. It seems he had built his entire business there around selling mutual funds within accounts he developed. These were large accounts and required ongoing servicing, so he did little time to focus ANYTHING else. This was his reward for 25 years of loyal service. In addition, VALIC changes their service forms more often than some people change their underwear. So one is often re-doing work. VALIC does this though to make things as difficult for the client to move their assets elsewhere as they can. So BOTH clients and brokers are left with a bitter taste in their mouth.

      Claims Analyst - Financial Lines

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The work environment is collegiate and friendly.

      Cons

      The CEO is driving the company into the ground by cutting jobs left and right. There are not enough people to do all of the work.
