Pros

I've found Western National to be a great place to work in my time here. First, even through a period of consistent growth, it's remained a stable place to work. The leaders are accessible. The company provides career paths for advancement, which I've been able to personally pursue; and I get regular feedback from my manager on opportunities for professional development. Also, the company has good benefits (medical, 401k match stand out) and a lot of employee wellbeing programs.

Cons

The company's rapid growth has led to a greater pace of change in recent years, and that has been stressful at times (though it's good that the company is growing).

Thank you leaving an in-depth review! As you mentioned, we have grown substantially in the last few years, which has allowed us to expand the personal and professional benefits that we offer. With a strong emphasis on professional development, we offer many opportunities for employees to grow, including continuing education courses, career planning, and in-house training. Similarly, we are dedicated to providing personal benefits to our employees, which includes a robust benefits package, an employee well-being program, and more. At the end of the day, we are committed to providing an exceptional employee experience, which we know starts with recognizing the value that our employees bring to the organization. In regard to the company’s rapid growth, we recognize that we are still experiencing a few growing pains. As we continue to grow, the workload will continue to increase in order to keep pace with the day-to-day needs of our organization. In 2023, we had a record-breaking number of new hires, and we have many more positions slated for 2024. Our goal is to grow our organization and number of employees to ensure the work is spread evenly and decrease the stress felt during the busy times. We are always looking for feedback on areas in which we can improve. If you are willing to share more, please contact us directly 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.
