Product roles are product in name only: If you come here expecting to actually own a product, define a vision, or drive outcomes — you’ll be disappointed. PMs are essentially project coordinators trapped in a bureaucratic maze with no real say. You're being set up for failure.
Zero clarity on accountability: Nearly no way of upholding personal accountability for one's behavior and work output. No ability for management to actually use data to determine promotion opportunities, which essentially results in little to no actual career growth.
Cultural stagnation: This is a legacy insurance company pretending it’s transforming, but the reality is glacial progress and entrenched politics. If you have modern product or tech experience, this place will feel like a huge step backwards.
Silos everywhere: Business, tech, data, and design all operate on their own timelines, rarely in sync. The operational differences between the India & US colleagues is significant as well. Collaboration is more about navigating egos and hierarchies than solving problems.
Death by meetings: Endless, pointless meetings with no decisions made. Things that should take a day take weeks because nobody is empowered to act.
Not a growth environment: If you’re ambitious, strategic, or want to sharpen your skills in a modern working environment, you will plateau quickly here. It’s an environment that rewards staying in your lane, not innovating.
