Pros

Amica has a good health care plan. Amica does reach out to the community Amica employee's do care about the customers and look out for each other, A good place for baby boomers and the silent generation to work.

Cons

There is no career path at the local level. You will need to move to a different state or home office in RI if you plan to move up. No benefit is offered to assist you with moving if you can even find an opening elsewhere. The managers are not trained well and lack people skills. Amica also invest little in technology. Agents are will doing many tasks manually such as issuing policies. Time off is a point of contingency for many. Employees are written up regularly for exceeding sick time (average 40 hours a year) even if that employee clearly has that time available. Amica is very "old school" with regard to policy and procedures. I would not recommend Generation X or Y will find it a very stifling place to work.

Pros

Finanacially stable company. Great benefits including holidays, vacation time and health/dental mostly paid for Ind/fam...401K sharing, pension that may or may not be there in 20-30 years (don't want to count on that) Fairly flexible for time off, depending on staffing needs. Good work atmosphere, great co workers. In the time I've been with the company I have never once thought "I really don't want to go to work today" as I have before with poorly run companies.

Cons

When I first interviewed, I enjoyed the interview, however I wasn't given a clear idea of how 'bonuses' or commissions were paid. I wanted to know the bottom line of what I could expect if I worked hard. After a few weeks of not knowing, past the base salary and benefits, how I could increase my pay with bonuses, I was finally given the information. It was disappointing. I have learned and will continue to learn how to create my own opportunities, as my salary total needs to increase by about $15k. It will take hard work just like it would at any other job.
