- cohort of peers, grads, advocates and leaders for support and guidance
- new experiences with variety every 12-6 months + opportunity to take on more through projects and events
- encourage relocation
- leadership committed to me and my peers, and challenging us through each experience
Cons
- not a con, but there is no clearly defined path. with guidance and support from program leadership and mentors, each participant chooses how/what they want to get from the program.

Thank you for your review.
It’s great to hear that you are enjoying your Operations Leadership Development Program experience. Our management teams are dedicated to providing development and growth opportunities for all of our employees and we are glad that you recognize our commitment.
We receive continuous training to stay up to date with new state regulations and market trends. My colleagues make the day go by quickly. The benefits are very reasonable. There is room for career growth if you know how to network. I appreciate their consistent push for community volunteer opportunities.
Cons
The personal lines department seems to be falling apart right now. Issues with the internal systems are resulting in underwriters doing multiple jobs and becoming a dumping ground for all agent issues even if they aren't underwriting related. I don't feel that the directors are truly expressing to the senior leadership team the impact that all these issues are having on the mental health and quality of life for the employees that are on the front lines trying to maintain a good reputation for the company. It's sad to see how quickly this department has gone downhill and the amount of quality underwriters that are jumping ship for different departments or different companies all together. What's even sadder it that no one with authority seems to care, or listen, when concerns are brought forth. I truly advise anyone considering applying for any position within the personal insurance department to hold off until things start to change - it's not worth the mental anguish that you'll experience.
