Pros

• Executive-level support for change. Group 1001 is undergoing massive modernization, and leadership is committed to rebuilding the tech stack from the ground up. • High-impact work. If you like solving problems at scale—cloud migration, insourcing, SD-WAN, service observability—this is your arena. • Autonomy and ownership. You’re trusted to lead, not micromanaged. Ambitious initiatives get a real shot here. • C-level access. The org is flat enough that decisions can be escalated and addressed quickly when needed. • Smart hires. The newer engineering and security leadership team brings real talent and pragmatism.

Cons

• Technical debt is real. Years of outsourcing and neglect mean you're often starting from zero—be ready to roll up sleeves and operate without legacy safety nets. • Resource constraints. Like any PE-backed firm mid-transformation, you’ll need to do more with less while building the case for headcount and tooling. • Inconsistent maturity. Some legacy processes and teams haven’t caught up with the transformation mindset yet. • Cultural variation. Experiences can vary wildly by department, especially between legacy insurance-side teams and tech-forward units.

Pros

Pay is above average along with incentive bonus, vacation time and health benefits.

Cons

New President of Delaware Life is cutting costs without even realizing the importance of people's positions in IT. While the VP's are staying, the workers are getting the pink slip. It is only a matter of time before people realize the errors in their ways.
