Pros

Co workers keep it a good place, some managers who ACTUALLY care and listen and TRY to help

Cons

Lack of motivation for customer service especially since (Customer service rep) Morale is low, team members continue to leave yet there are no replacement’s coming in/being hired, causing more strain and lower morale for hardworking employees.. no incentives to drive the want to work with current staff level. Licensed Lead team not making comparable wages to other companies. Tenured leads should not be making the same as those who just started. Lack of communication to Licensed Lead team which causes lack of trust between the lead team and the customer service reps , in turn causing miscommunication to customers. Lack of higher leadership meetings with Licensed team to discuss needs/concerns/wants. (Skip level)

Not what it used to be

Pros

Benefits are pretty solid, generous PTO. There are a lot of very talented and smart people at Root. Good culture.

Cons

The lack of transparency around compensation. This is a question posed to the executive team in nearly every all hands meeting, and it is almost always a boilerplate answer claiming Root pays in the 75th percentile. Additionally, bonuses and raises have been sparse if not non-existent in claims. Other companies are paying signing bonuses, and 20%-25% higher salaries for comparable claims leadership positions.
