Pros

The business decisions are sound on where the company is going and seems to be a stable company. The benefits were decent. The employee engagement activities are fun.

Cons

The upper management is very misogynistic. It is well known that men will get raises and bonus first and it will be higher. Promotions will go to the men unless there is no man that can take the role. Comments from upper management in public/group settings are made to minimize women and them wanting to have a family. They do not seem to support working mothers. There is no support from HR when reports are made regarding sexist comments. The majority of the managers are promoted due to tenure with the company, not their ability to manage.

Thank you for your feedback. We take each review seriously, and we’re troubled by your overall perception of the company — it does not align with the values we promote at Western National. Integrity is core to our company culture, and we have a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination. To your note about career paths, please know that raises and promotions are based on merit. We are committed to maintaining a culture that provides fair opportunities to all employees, regardless of gender. We also emphasize work/life balance, work flexibility, and benefit programs designed (and continually reviewed) to support all employees and their families. We’re always striving to do better, and we’d like to learn more about your specific experience. If you are willing to share more details, please contact us at HRmail@wnins.com.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We appreciate hearing your positive comments about our friendly work environment, great benefits, and continuous career development, as these are areas of increased focus to showcase our commitment to employee growth and well-being. We also appreciate your comments about meeting frequency, camera expectations, and our shift away from fully remote work. While we continue to offer flexible, hybrid, and remote work options to a majority of our employees at all office locations (as approved by a manager), we also recognize that face-to-face communication and connectiveness are important parts of our company values. These interactions help strengthen collaboration, support our teams, and ensure we’re providing the best experience for our customers. The privilege to work remotely is and will remain dependent on the needs of our customers balanced with the needs of our employees and internal teams. We would like the opportunity to hear more about your experience. If you are willing to share, please contact us directly at HRmail@wnins.com.

Pros

There are really great teams to work on and enjoyable coworkers. Independent decision making. Pay is slightly below average, but benefits are great. Profit share bonus. Good CEO. Departments very much encourage hiring within and lateral transitions to different areas of the company.

Cons

Your team members may be great, but a difficult manager dampens the day to day experience. Pay could be higher.
