Pros

Implemented agile methodology, structured approach to development, new folks haven't been around long enough to understand/realize the lack of upward mobility beyond first level promotions.

Cons

Upper management tells you what you want to hear, but falls short on the follow through, which results in disillusioned and bitter associates who are willing to stay until they find another employer.

Pros

Salary was decent. Nice people to work with.

Cons

Top heavy in management who have too much say in very minute details in claims handling. Pet projects of upper management foisted upon adjusters who have tons of work to do. Even if these projects are unrealistic or cost the company money to implement, they will be done. Half of the productive work days are spent on these pet projects instead of handling actual claims. Tons of claims, calls, mail, phone calls. Unrealistic amount of work that they want handled perfectly and almost error free. Home office is in an isolated part of the country. You feel like a commodity instead of an employee. Upper management goes out of there way to treat you like a commodity. They have an imminence front.

Pros

Decent use of technology. Not required to sacrifice my first born in order to keep my job. Not much else positive to share.

Cons

Extremely negative corporate culture. Employees are treated as a commodity. Strategy has hurt the company, having gone through a wide range of folks who might be willing to live in arctic conditions (home office).
