Pros

There are Stellar, Quality, people that you can learn from that genuinely want to see you succeed. You just need to find them before the toxicity of upper management infects them and they leave too.

Cons

Never have I experienced a more morally, and ethically corrupt group of senior management than I have at Guardian. One of the mission Statement is WE DO THE RIGHT THING. Um, not so much. I can't say for sure how far this infection goes and that the CEO is aware or is she naively trusting her direct reports but when you have gone through 6 Chief HR officers in 3 years, you got a problem. There is no HR support for the employee. As Management and HR are incestouslyintertwined

Pros

employees and agents care about the company. They believe that people count. They believe in doing the right thing. They hold themselves to the highest standards.

Cons

Very risk averse. Senior management spends more time watching their backs than worrying about growing the company. The values of the company are not lived top down.

Pros

Pension New building Co workers Work from home

Cons

We have a female ceo who turned a blind eye to years of female harassment by the head of one of her vertical and what is worse after finally firing him she let all the white men who KNEW about his behavior stay Their is no accountable about female discrimination or the blatant glass ceiling and all white male culture It’s so sad that with so few female ceos this will be her legacy that guardian is one of the worst places to work as a working woman and even worse for working mothers it take 4 to 5 times as long to get to a director or officer level as a women outside of the actuarial program and operations than male counterparts When HR tries to fix it guardian gets rid of the senior HR leaders it’s so sad
