Pros

6% 401k match and middle/lower management is typically pretty good

Cons

Where to start… first off, it seems like Cincinnati is trying hard to drown out these bad reviews… just an observation. No diversity at the top. Literally the “suits” all look exactly the same. New CEO is terrible. He doubled his salary (well into the millions) but still pays employees $20 an hour and claims it’s “very competitive”. RTO mandate and then they took away ALL flexibility. Seriously, it’s like with the RTO we went back in time 50 years. PTO is low to start, but now instead of flexing hours to accommodate doctor’s appointments, we’re required to use PTO. CEO stated we would not be moving from our hybrid model but then months later forced it, mocked and laughed at employees who raised serious concerns, and then challenged us to find “better jobs” if we didn’t like the new rules. All departments are hemorrhaging employees, as everyone is finding jobs that have CEO’s from this century. Current employees are now having to do the role of 2-3 people, due to how quickly people are exiting, and they’re getting no pay raise, nothing. Cincinnati insurance is trying to fill vacant roles fast, but unless you’re fresh out of high school, $20 an hour in this economy, with zero flexibility and 10 PTO days, not even off all the major holidays, isn’t going to work. Extremely disappointing because they’ve lost and continue to lose the good employees that are desirable to other companies.

Pros

I love my territory, my direct manager, and my team. I enjoy my coworkers. The lunch stipend is nice. I’ve had a lot of really great mentors during my time. The company had given me some good opportunities including free continuing education and career advancement.

Cons

The pay has been lower than the industry standard. The benefits are decent in the long term, but the raises for those growing within the company are almost insulting. Any attempts to negotiate are shut down. Bonuses have also been on the low end, although I recognize they aren’t a given. Paid time off is also somewhat limited with slow increases every 5 years. Upper management has changed and I don’t feel it’s been positive. There has been low morale and high turnover. Starting pay has remained stagnant despite increased demands of returning to office which I feel contributes to staffing difficulties. Cost of gas, car maintenance, and work attire have now cut into wages. The company felt like it cared about its staff when I started, but I have begun to feel like a cog in the corporate wheel. Corners are being cut in the name of “efficiency,” however the foundational flaws haven’t been addressed.
