      Pros

      High renewal stream of income if you have an existing book of business to bring over Great place to go to end your career one way or another. If you're going to retire at the company you may be thrilled about the high renewal payout. If you're starting a career, don't worry you'll be on your way out soon enough because it will be the end of your career

      Cons

      Hard work doesn't pay off, it's about who you're friends with.

      Pros

      Monday thru Friday, day time hours. Supplemental insurance offered is decent. There are some great people who work there. Security team is great.

      Cons

      Many hours of mandatory overtime are regularly required. Management will tell you work is more important than family, that you need to learn to manage your time. Strict guidelines for production and quality are required and they enforce with threats of job loss and comparing employees to "unruly children without guidelines" rather than nuture and encourage growth. Consistently exceeding expectations in production, quality, and teamwork does not aid you in moving up within the company, however. Only the favorites and/or friends of the management excel within the company. The management is not very honest with the employees. The teams are plagued with consistent drama and rumors due to the fact the management has different expectations for different peers based on who they like better. Also, a lot of teams are assembled to create solid work flows so the work can be shipped to the offshore team, leaving the full time staff to worry about job security.
