Global Atlantic reviews

Too many managers without the relevant experience to manage, who blatantly mistreat employees. Inflated egos and too much "power" has created an unhealthy environment for anyone looking to grow their career or perform to their full capacity. There is a definite inner circle that you will not be able to get in to. In fact, you are purposely excluded from events and projects, or, if you were on a project you are routinely phased out of it so that the "managers" can receive the "glory" associated with a "job well done." I experienced more than one occasion where I was intentionally left out of meetings on projects I had been working on. Other cons: Expressly forbidden from speaking to upper management. Criticized for providing honest, diplomatic feedback about a project. Retaliated against for being ill. Given menial projects when requesting more work because I had capacity, while managers complained to everyone who would listen about how busy they were. The culture is horrible. You are made fun of, discriminated against and harassed, albeit quietly sometimes and more overtly at other times. I have never reviewed a former company before but feel so strongly that Global Atlantic is headed in the wrong direction (and opening themselves up to countless lawsuits with the way management speaks to employees -- with ZERO concern for HR rules and regulations) that I had to post.

There is no work/life balance. The ability to take on additional responsibilities that would advance your career is solely dependent on your willingness to work 10+ hrs a day. 10 is expected and factored into headcount capacity models. The employees and managers in the offices outside the Northeast, which also happen to be predominantly female, are neither listened to nor trusted, and are often treated as children playing around by the "big boys" of Boston and NY.
