You are a number not an employee - Underwriting Assistant The Cincinnati Insurance Company Employee Review

Pros

There is a fair expectation of security. There are no layoffs. Benefits package is comparable to their competitors.

Cons

Compensation is 10 to 25k less than their competitors. It is fairly clear that they consider you replaceable. The centralized HR has no idea who is a good employee and who is not so raises are not assigned accordingly. Extra effort will get you nowhere because of this and you should expect 3% yearly no matter how well you perform or how hard you work. Policies on dress code and employee appearance are out of date. If an underwriting assistant job is offered to you I would not recommend taking it. Advancement from that position is extremely limited and the position is the catch all for the things that no one wants to do.

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.
