      Pros

      flexible work/life balance; financially stable; co workers are fun to work with

      Cons

      lower salary than most other companies in the boston area; outdated computer systems; zero career growth. promotions come only if you are willing to do tons of extra work for free, then keep your fingers crossed to see if you are recognized.

      Culture has changed significantly in the last couple of years, very poor leadership at top

      Pros

      Flexibility..good name recognition now that they've poured all their money into it.

      Cons

      This used to be a great place to work until they cut the compensation for sales reps significantly. They have former sales people running major products and driving the company into the ground. They are spending a ton of $$ on advertising and as a result are not focused on building infrastructure and service model which they definitely need. They have the worst compensation plan for sales reps of all insurance carriers and I have worked for two other name carriers.
