Acuity Insurance reviews

Workload management is not ideal. You may be swamped one month and then have little to do the next. It seems that for more senior folks, work life balance and mental health begins to suffer. Some who are brave will request to lower their workload when stress becomes too much, but generally if you are 'able' to handle the work - you are expected to perform at this high level regardless of how many nights you are staying late to work or how many lunch breaks skipped, many even put in weekend hours... (notice that even though many opt to work in the office, very few actually sit down for lunch and use the lunch tables?? We have no time!). Higher ups will brag about how underwriters manage a larger territory than average uw in industry, but shrug shoulders when people say they have too much to handle.. 'Productivity' is tracked but they won't even bother to tell you how this is measured - even higher up managers don't seem to know, it's just something plugged into a system and a number magically pops out, and causes anxiety for many. Upper management tells you to "take the time to have coffee with a friend" while not realizing the immense workloads do not allow time for this especially for senior employees.
