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.

Pros

- Good CEO who listens, has innovative ideas and, I believe, cares about the employees and where the company is going. - Benefits- 401(k). Outstanding 401(k). Best that I’ve seen – especially in this area. - Large company. You have the opportunity to advance if you work hard enough and get to know the right people. - Bonuses. Annual salary increase and bonus. - Great vacation package. - Job security. - On-site cafeteria with pro-rated meals (at home office).

Cons

- Employee trust. Employees are called “associates”, but we aren’t treated as such. There is little employee trust. Everything is very regulated, there is usually a need to acquire at least one manager approval before any decision can be made. Even going to the on-site gym on your lunch break needed a manger sign-off at one point. - Attitude. There isn’t a willingness/openness for change from tenured employees. Attitudes can be very negative and condescending. Unwillingness for cooperation. Too many cooks in the kitchen. - Benefits – Medical. Abysmal. They made slight improvements in the last few years, but for a company this size, you would expect much, much better.
