Pros

- pto (for USA it's alright, still no where near comparable to other first world nations.

Cons

- back to the office, so that we can work virtually from our cube. Makes no sense. - good news for new hires, they pay you way more then us senior folks. Bad news for senior folks, your pay raise will always be below the cost of living - work load typically unfeasible - stay out of auto

Pros

Travelers is unmatched in living what it preaches in terms of community involvement - plenty of opportunities to get engaged in volunteer activities and/or earn donation money for hours volunteered somewhere of your choosing. Travelers seems to be in a moment of change (though slow) with agile transformations and increased customer centricity. Individuals at Travelers often move through various functions in their careers. This can be great for someone looking to try something new or develop a breadth of experience. At times though, it is concerning that too much emphasis is placed on generic leadership qualities and not sufficient value on specialized skills.

Cons

Travelers risk aversion comes to life in interesting ways - the culture tends to be one of control through collaboration. By expecting an excessive number of inputs, Travelers successfully creates checks and balances that make progress crawl. The culture is one of meetings and lots of running things up and down flag poles. Control is exercised through "collaboration." I suppose a pro of this is that responsibility is so diffuse it could be easy to coast.
