Pros

The benefit is decent. 401k is pretty good. Nice cafeteria.

Cons

Treat employees with no respect. Often get ride of the senior employers with high salaries to reduce company cost. Lack of transparency and respect. Too much office politics. No talent development. Keep away from this s$$t hole.

Pros

401K and health insurance. Not one other thing. This company has gotten progressively worse each year.

Cons

Some truly awful people work here. They were the rudest, snottiest people I have come across. HR is worthless, and does nothing to stop issues that have been brought to them by multiple people from the same department. Managers are equally poor, many having no managerial skills or experience. Promotion are based on cliques and youth rather than experience, knowledge and professionalism. Bonuses get smaller each year and raises are minimal. Go elsewhere if you want to be happy in your career.

A Tough Time

Pros

Decent benefits, flexible working arrangements (from home/remote), opportunities for those with the right skills in the right location that know the right people.

Cons

In a very tough spot right now. Jobs are shifting to lower cost locations and replaced at lower salary. Company is reactive in nature to the point of being "knee-jerk" at times. It is really a phase due to the natural catastrophe losses in recent years but it is very discouraging. Lots of folks left or were asked to leave and those of us left are left inadequately equipped to pick up the pieces.
