Pros
401K, Work From Home opportunities. Low pressure work environment for the most part.
Cons
They rarely if ever promote anyone up to management internally. They always complain about salaries, yet promptly bring in an AVP or VP from another big insurance company rather than promote someone up internally. Then senior management pats each other on the backs, gives each other the highest possible employee rankings and larger bonuses. They tout as their mantra that 'Our People Count'.. well that means that their 'people' are counting down until they are out of the door as ALL operational jobs are going to one of the five subsidiaries that Guardian Life now has in India. Yup.. they found a way around the whole H1 Visa issue.., with just buying crap tonne of tiny companies in India and then offshore all of the ops jobs over there. If you are a white American male.. you are screwed. Oh, and they had a pension plan.., but starting this year they sunset it for any new employees.., which means that over the next couple of years.. it will vanish completely. But do not worry Senior Managers.. they will keep it for you!!!
