Pros

You can move up within the company fairly quickly if there are open positions available. I was able to move up within my first year with the company

Cons

The company merged with Unitrin and with this merger there have been numerous layoffs. I personally was not laid off, however within a year there were two layoffs and two offices to close in various states. With the merger this resulted in more customers, however the company did not see fit to hire more employees to handle the increased customer base, instead they laid employees off. With this increased customer base and the lack of employees to service them, this resulted in heavy workload, which resulted in poor customer service and low morale among the employees.

Pros

Pay and benefits, supportive coworkers, opportunities to develop critical thinking, communication, and investigation skills. The role provided valuable experience in handling complex claims and making coverage and liability decisions.

Cons

High caseloads and demanding workloads can make it challenging to maintain work life balance. The job can be stressful at times due to deadlines, customer expectations, and the volume of claims.
