Pros

Run for the hills! I am currently an employee with Arch. Employees are sweet and hard working. The company does have fun get together once to twice a year. The parking is great and the building is in a great location.

Cons

When you go home crying it can't be good. The holiday schedule only applies to other employees not to underwriting or underwriting support. Extreme micromanaging, the management makes you feel as if you are not important. There is a demand for overtime which can be hard if you have a family (also requested OT on Sunday). I don't think some staff would mind if they felt valued.

Pros

Work from home, 401k match up to 6% (plus they contribute a separate amount each year), HSA employer contributions

Cons

Work heavily depends on your manager and team. I have had many managers since I started and the culture has shifted from a small, specialty company, to more of a large corporate structure. It used to be very flat and you felt connected to upper management, now it feels more like a firm hierarchy that you have little understanding with.
