Pros

- A good foot in the door for the insurance industry

Cons

- Constant company restructures resulting in waves of redundancies, thus no job security - Lack of career progression in certain teams - Obvious nepotism/favouritism - Lack of diversity: tends to favour the same type of people - Pay is well below market rate - Work isn’t evenly distributed across the teams

Pros

Salary was in market range.

Cons

Manager took zero interest in me. I spoke to her 2 times in the 6 months I was there. It’s just an endless grind to various SEC and investor required reporting. By the time you finish you need to start over. Almost all process are broken. This $13B company runs on excel. It’s a real risk that this company collapses on itself. They purchase companies and destroy everything good about their cultures. I was so happy and content until they purchased us. The executives paint a fake picture of their culture to the street.
