Pros

Recently renovated interior, very open floors, no crowding. Business always growing, financially sound.

Cons

Absolutely no room for growth, development is looked at as trying to leave a department, which causes management to become very insecure. Managers will hold you back you from another position if they need you in their's. Lies to temporary employees with the promise of a temporary to permanent position, but keeps them on for years to keep from providing benefits or higher pay for the same job with the same requirements of permanent employees. Senior management is constantly changing, no consistency which leads to failure for all employees. Very selfish, unapproachable, petty management that are very difficult to trust or feel comfortable with. Customer Service Department is an absolute mess, turnover is very high. Unlivable wage raises each year, generally 1% which does not keep up with the cost of health insurance increases. Astronomically priced, high deductible healthcare that will put a huge dent in your paycheck and has no benefit.

Penn Mutual Response

Thank you for your review. At Penn Mutual we encourage input from all of our associates to ensure that we maintain our transparent and collaborative culture. We have many avenues for associates to discuss concerns if they choose not to reach out to their immediate leadership. At Penn Mutual we take pride in the number of open positions which are filled by internal candidates. Of the more than 85 open positions filled in 2016, 25% were filled by internal candidates. We believe this internal mobility supports our associates’ growth and development and strengthens us as a company. Penn Mutual, like most employers, continues to navigate the challenges involved in providing comprehensive healthcare coverage to our associates, and we work hard to remain competitive in this area. Again, thank you for the feedback as our culture is important to us and believe it is what sets us apart.
