Pros

The people are great. Stable company with no worries about down sizing. All management have been promoted from within. Private company with pension plan is pretty rare these days.

Cons

40-30% lower base pay than same job title in other insurance companies in the area. Leadership positions don't come with much in the way of pay increase = no real incentive to get promoted. Annual raise equals inflation if good. If bad, a little less than inflation = not much difference in a good review vs bad review. Management has sole control over internal transfers. Employees have no idea what jobs are available, nor their pay.

Pros

Amazing people. Amazing atmosphere. Amazing milieu. I love my internship and i am getting paid pretty well for an intern.

Cons

I am in claims so it is pretty redundant in tasks even though no claim is the same.

Pros

There is a lot left to be desired, the primary "Pro" would be co- workers

Cons

In my opinion, AO is short sighted and concerned only for the higher ups. Departments are forced to be silo-ed and have built a culture that even walking into a another area of the same floor makes you feel out of place. Decisions are made from a top down perspective, meaning they are worried about their bottom dollar instead of what is in the best interest of everyone. The front line workers receive a low salary and a cap on profit sharing of 15% while managers get 2x that amount, with the higher you climb the bigger the bonus. Employees are seen as disposable and are treated as such.
