I am also a fan of the work/life balance and I’ve heard similar feedback from employees over the years. I think it’s one of the many reasons Symetra was named as a Great Place to Work® earlier this year. Your note about Symetra being heavily political, though, is concerning and if you’re willing, I would love to be able to chat about that a little more. I can be reached at erin.woltz@symetra.com.

Pros

Coworkers are pleasant to work with.

Cons

Management is severely lacking in day to day job functions of their staff, they target anyone they do not like regardless of that person’s job performance. Managers are out of touch with what their staff is doing and they pick favorites. HR supports this behavior and will railroad you right out the door while destroying your mental health. Senior HR members see nothing wrong with targeting staff members based on who they “like”, and they lie to your face when you challenge it. Working 12+ hour days is necessary to keep up with the workload they put on you.
