Pros

Great 401k match, great pto and holidays, Work at home opportunities

Cons

Insurance options premiums way too high for a company this size, too much mandatory overtime, no room for advancement, understaffed, unorganized growth. Leave mgmt dept has been on mandatory overtime for over a year most leave specialists work 50-55 hours a week with very little abilitiy to have a life outside of work

Pros

They are doing a good job at getting younger talent into a historically aging industry. Benefits are solid (unsurprisingly to the nature of the business) and you will definitely achieve a work-life balance. Also, the offices are very nice, the opportunity for growth is fantastic, and the company is investing in its employees.

Cons

Being an employee benefits company, it lacks excitement at times, and is rather slow moving. Definitely some smart people, but a little unsocial. 9-5 job.
