Pros

Great employees - however, the best have left, or are preparing to leave. Good PTO structure. Competitive pay/salary - not worth the long hours, demands and overall lack of work/life balance.

Cons

The Hartford was the BEST company to work for, for many years. Unfortunately, changes in senior leadership has destroyed the company from the top down. Fear based management, micro-managing leaders and unqualified senior leaders have led to the downfall of this once great company.

Pros

The people are wonderful as well as the PTO we earn. Upper management at my location always seem to be looking for ways to improve the systems and make the work less stressful.

Cons

There does not seem to be enough career opportunites. I do not want to get stuck in claims but I also do not want to leave the company but without opportunities to advance it makes it hard to stay. Employee engagement needs some work. Unfortunately I do not want to come to work in the morning. I actually dread it.

Pros

Really enjoy the people I work with and the job definitely keeps your mind working all day long. Constant problem solving and really great if you enjoy a challenge.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations of their employees. Work loads are not distributed evenly among co-workers. Should have been upfront about the overtime expectations. I took this job so I would no longer have to work weekends, evenings or holidays and it seems that I work more of them than I did when I was scheduled for them just to get my work done. Never able to get ahead and always feeling behind due to the overload of work.
