Pros

Company values; very good benefits; and many opportunity to travel abroad and to get to know different cultures. It is not difficult to apply for a job abroad if you are interested on. Company with an xcellent work-life balance.

Cons

A lot of internal work - you can spend more time on internal stuff then being in contact with clients. not a very efficient company, too slow in making decisions.

Pros

1. 12% 401k match 2. Amazing co workers in the trenches but this is rapidly changing as people look for the exits.

Cons

1. Management - the new management team has a maximum personal bonus / profit only mindset. Cost cutting reigns. 2. Constant layoffs. No job is safe. 3. Company has offshored many jobs to India and is in a race to move key underwritering, engineering, claims functions to India as well. Overall, it feels more like a private equity gut job than a publicly traded company.
