Pros

Learned a lot, sort of like drinking water from a fire hydrant if you can handle that. Other actuarial trainees/analysts extremely kind and helpful.

Cons

No work/life balance. You are replaceable to them and they don’t care about you, your career or actuarial development. They will overwork you and you’ll never get a thank you. Especially as a woman, I felt looked down upon by upper management. If you had to work here, I’d recommend to stay about a year, get the experience for your resume and move on to somewhere that’ll actually value you and your work. They wait over 2 years to give you any sort of promotion to an analyst and very minimal minimal raise. Overall, everything that I experienced there was NOT worth it and did far much more harm than good. Please don’t put up with being treated like trash.

Pros

Business side is smart and is superb at their product

Cons

The IT organization struggles with structural challenges that impact efficiency. The offshore-heavy model in India means US-based employees regularly work early hours to stay aligned, which is unsustainable long-term. The workforce is heavily weighted toward a high-headcount service model rather than investing in strong engineering talent — you need fewer, better engineers, not more bodies. Central tech functions are attempting to build platforms, but without a clear shared understanding of what a platform actually means, these initiatives remain incomplete. The result is heavy manual workarounds propping up half-finished solutions. Strategic direction shifts frequently, and ongoing layoff announcements make it difficult to plan or build momentum.
