Pros

TBH, no pros at all for technical folks working here. I wanted to rate this 0 for this company but 1 is the least number we can give on this platform. I left this company within 3 months of joining and I am on H1-B Visa. I was not impulsive to leave this job, just got bored out of work. So, please think before you join here. There are a lot of great companies in Chicago and the suburbs. 1. Yes, if you want to get paid without doing anything then this is the best place for you.

Cons

1. Worst Leadership (Tech - Data Science, Application Engineering, IT, etc) 2. Incompetent reporting managers 3. Heavily reliant on Contractors from Accenture, TCS, etc. which has led to subpar tech products, unoptimized internal tools, and pathetic internal politics. 4. There is no good system design/architecture for data projects. 5. And not a place for Master's students. Better to work somewhere else rather than here. 6. Subtle racism.

Pros

Pay is great, co worker support, transparency, PTO, Fully remote

Cons

Training is very rough. There is zero formal training & everyone operates their desk differently so you are confused on the correct way to complete your job. Underwriters are expecting too much of their UT & want to be spoiled. There needs to be a strict proocol. The only way to voice concerns is to be completely honest & while it helps, it still doesnt make up for no formal training. You just have to deal with it. Underwriting Technicians are overwhelmed & have too many Underwriters to cover. CNA needs to hire for help. Overwhelmed employees lead to burn out & mental health issues. Underwriters deserve to have their own UT/UA. The workload is ridiculous & causes more mistakes. Somedays you cant even breathe.
