Not the role I was promised—disappointing experience
Pros
The company respects work-life balance, which was a major plus. My manager was supportive and approachable, and the team often participated in happy hours and social activities that helped build camaraderie.
Cons
The role was not what I was told it would be during the interview process. I was led to believe that I would be working on a broader range of legal and coverage issues, including long-tail bodily injury, property damage, Coverage B issues, and environmental or toxic tort claims. Instead, I was placed exclusively on construction defect claims—an area I specifically said I was not interested in. As an attorney, I was hoping for more legal analysis and coverage strategy, not repetitive claim handling. The hiring process was also disorganized and dragged out; I interviewed in December, received a verbal offer in January, and didn’t get an official written offer until February. Compensation was also lower than expected, especially compared to law firm salaries. Overall, the experience left me feeling misled and dissatisfied.
