Thank you for taking the time to provide your candid feedback. I would also like to thank you for your many years of service at Sentry. I would agree that we have very nice associates at Sentry who are great to work with. Unfortunately many times in large organizations senior leadership can appear to be unapproachable, but in reality are very friendly and welcome the opportunity to discuss issues and help develop solutions. I would encourage any current associates to take advantage of that opportunity. Thanks again for sharing your experience. We are always striving to improve, so we sincerely appreciate the feedback.

Overall, overworked beyond any sort of comprehension.

Pros

The good thing is that they match 6% of the 401k. All typical benefits, health, dental, additional life insurance if needed. Vacation is 2 weeks, and 4 "floating holidays" to be used 2 every 6 months.

Cons

Absolutely UNREALISTIC work load. It's a shame. Managers in the auto department are overworked, and that translates down hill to their teams. On the workers comp side, there is one really good manager, and a good associate director, but if you're in the unit of one of the other two managers, who show up late, leave early, and keep piling up the work to those people who they know who can "handle" the work load, be warned. The pay was increased a couple of years ago, but it is still way below average. The bonus this year was bogus. It's truly a shame because the employees are loyal. There is no work life balance.
