Work Hard and it pays off!

Pros

The employees at Argo Group and it's subsidiary companies are some of the best professionals in the specialty insurance space I have ever met. The offices continue to get upgraded. The systems are being upgraded to match our specialty-this is not easy, but we know it will be worth it.

Cons

We continue to experience the typical growing pains of a company our size, which can be tough-but it definitely pays off! We are a public company and an insurance company so there is a double whammy of compliance-this can be tough-but it will keep us from ending up like another AIG.

There are some very talented individuals in the organization.

Cons

The list is extensive: Lack of vision and direction Poor change management Expense ratios are out of control Executives do not walk the talk, values are just words on a piece of paper, they are not demonstrated Total lack of trust in the organization Great talent is walking out the door at an alarming rate Micromanagement is abundant Employees are not treated with respect "My way or the highway" environment, diverse ideas are not welcomed or considered
