      Pros

      Average benefits. Free Coffee. Employee Team Building Events; Nice Clean modern offices

      Cons

      Emphasis on millenials. Train and promote cookie cutter underwriters fresh out of college; nepotism and favoritism; best qualified or hardest worker doesn't get the promotion. Doesn't use existing talent base. Loses too many hard working dedicated associates due to the favoritism. Former interns get opportunities and pay raises when they are lacking basic insurance knowledge.
