Pros

- Wonderful work culture - Emphasis on flexibility of the work schedule, while still focusing on being in the office - Enjoyable group to work with - Management that feels like they really care about the people - You can rise up the ranks - Benefits are solid, but the 401(k) specifically is AWESOME Overall, it's a really solid and stable place to work with a lot of upside to gain valuable experience.

Cons

- Some changes around reacting to the current work market feel like they are lagging behind (having to compete with fully remote flexibility and salaries); Though in almost every case the direct manager will be OK with an associate working from home in a given circumstance - It is an insurance company first, and a tech company second
