Pros

Some coworkers are nice others not so much

Cons

If you plan on joining this company watch out. Manager set expectations for you but don’t practice what they preach. The preach learning, caring, and results all day long. However, they do not care about you and if they don’t like you will make it their mission to get you fired. They are very high school and have cliques. If you’re not in the in crowd you will be ousted. They claim to care and want to help but they don’t. Do not be fooled. If you aren’t a people pleaser and stick up for yourself they will make life harder on you. They treat you like a stooge rather than a colleague and will pass their work off on you. My manager was a huge people pleaser and did everything in her power to make sure other looked bad and would throw people under the bus at the drop of a hat. She would not fight for you and would not provide any real help whatsoever.

Pros

Fantastic learning opportunity, especially if you are willing to step up and put in extra effort. Key roles in niche industries allow for valuable subject matter expertise, both in regards to information and technical skills.

Cons

Compensation is pretty sad both in terms of overall salary, annual raises, and bonuses. Teams at Verisk support multi-million dollar accounts, work many hours above and beyond each week, and are still well under-paid in comparison to the clients we support on a daily basis. Talent has been leaving Verisk at a high rate and this is not being acknowledged. As a manager, it was difficult to navigate conversations with employees when it feels like only a few key decision makers have any wiggle room in terms of benefits or flexibility. Verisk has also been inflexible with returning to COVID, requiring multiple days in the office without much leniency while other companies in the industry have allowed fully remote positions. An exodus of tenured, knowledgeable staff and lack of compensation transparency will continue to hurt Verisk until they make significant changes.

Pros

Older employees used to have good benefits like pension and profit-sharing. That's all gone now. At least some of the lucky ones can work from home.

Cons

The CEO is actually happy that most employees are new. His attitude confirms that recent companywide turnover must have been intentional. Now EVERYONE is forced into CYA/survival mode. The new workforce is mostly made up climbers and backstabbers.
