Pros

Unified purpose to serve insurance industry. Varied organisation with commonality of sales, product development and client servicing themes across business operating model. Leadership efforts for staff are genuine. Values align with organisational day-to-day, not just words or aspirations.

Cons

Hybrid working is great, but still a requirement for min of 2 days per week onsite. Something like min of 80 days a year, including international travel, would be more flexible. Money could be better, not known as upper or third quartile for that. Balanced with everything else being great, including work:life balance. And HR takes career track frameworks seriously.

The commitment to flexibility and hybrid work is amazing! The US has a very robust benefits offering. There are several learning and development programs with a diverse range of offerings from self-paced training to more interactive live courses. The people are incredible, you will not find nicer company.

Cons

Verisk is an environment for "do-ers". This is a great place to build your career if you have great work ethic and are motivated to ty new things.

Pros

The people. I worked with genuinely talented, hardworking colleagues who showed up for each other and for the work, even when leadership made that hard.

Cons

Leadership at the senior level was chaotic and unclear, and it trickled down into everything. Projects routinely landed with little to no notice, leaving teams scrambling instead of planning. Budgets were micromanaged from the top while strategic direction was not — a strange mix of tight control over spending and almost no clarity on priorities. Communication from senior leadership rarely made it down to the people actually doing the work, so teams were often the last to know about decisions that directly affected them. There was also a clear undercurrent of fear among some senior leaders that discouraged any real innovation or experimentation — better to play it safe than propose something new. If you're someone who thrives on clarity, planning, and a culture that rewards new ideas, this is not that environment.
