Pros

12 holidays to recover from the madness

Cons

Incompetent leadership spends more time creating convoluted Excel sheets and calendars than taking action to improve the department. It's been three years since the last major restructure and we still don't have process. The culture is defensive, ripe with finger pointing and blame gaming with no improvement in sight. The team is asked to participate in focus groups at least once a year but nothing changes. The same four departmental objectives have been recycled year over year because "marketing objectives don't change" which really shows Verisks thoughts towards innovation. Contractors are brought in based on nepotism to complete "special projects". The Vice President team was completely upended and replaced two years ago but there has been no improvement (hmmm, what or who is the constant here?). If you are looking for a dead end job filled with chaos, frustration, politics and pointless event summaries, this place is a perfect fit for you. Otherwise, avoid Verisk and its marketing team at all costs.

Pros

I have been a product manager at several companies, and it is genuinely one of the best environments I have worked in. Verisk provides a unique opportunity to work closely with customers, engineering, design, and leadership to solve meaningful problems and deliver products that create business value. Product managers are trusted to help shape strategy and influence key decisions. Teams collaborate effectively, and there is a shared commitment to delivering high quality outcomes for customers. Leadership is approachable and receptive to new ideas, creating an environment where innovation is encouraged.

Cons

Navigating insurance regulatory requirements and customer compliance can occasionally slow feature development and release timelines.
