Great Training, Horrible Culture

Business Outlook

Pros

Training program prepares you very well for better jobs in the insurance industry. However getting some designations would be just as beneficial and give you more job opportunities.

Cons

If you’re a White Christian Conservative, then you would love this place. If not, run. Federated almost feels like a cult at times. There’s much better jobs in the industry, the reason they do their own training is so young employees don’t realize that. There’s a reason you sign a 5 year contract with them. They trap you before you realize you got conned into a cult.

Pros

I met a lot of really nice people working here. The trauma of this job will forever link us.

Cons

Oh where to start? Micromanaging, mandatory overtime, old-fashioned, must work in the office. Upper management never took Covid seriously. A bunch of us got sick. They are very numbers oriented. Emails every week about your numbers. Very stressful and frustrating. The raises are a joke. Don’t complain to HR bc they will tell your boss and then you will have some splaining to do. Obviously HR isn’t supposed to do that but here at federated rules don’t apply. Make sure you are getting coffee or snacks during your one and only break time of 15 min. If you have to pee a lot, get a doctor’s note. Smile you are on camera! Yes, they can see you come and go on camera that is always open on managements desktop. Their idea of dealing w Covid was to put up ply boards around all the cubicles bc that will stop an airborne virus. Smh.

Pros

Can make good money at a young age.

Cons

Left the company a couple of months ago and just got a phone call from the company attorney asking to pay back training fees. I did sign a contract for 5 years to pro-rate training fees, but a voicemail was an attorney threatening legal action was a weird move from a company that prides itself on have a personal touch. Wasn't the right fit for me, but also would not recommend.
