Pros

Great office, supportive of personal development, some lovely people work there, and they were the first major insurance firm to employ me / give me a chance.

Cons

The pay is sub standard for the industry - low basic salary, no bonus (which is unusual for insurance), limited benefits for most employees, and we even had to pay for our own Christmas party, etc. The culture looks great on paper but feels a bit false and it sometimes feels as though we're forgotten about by the American senior management team / the very top. Unfortunately feels as if we have no power whatsoever even at a departmental level, let alone on any kind of grander scale. Consequently there is a disconnect that exists even between the top of the department and the rest of us.

Pros

This would be a good company for a person seeking to get professional experience.

Cons

If you are very experienced in your field get ready to be under valued, under paid, and yet squeezed for everything they can get out of you. On the one hand they can't do without you. On the other you are told you're worth very little.

Pros

There were no pros to this job. I had worked as a Claims Adjuster for a few years before coming to this company. I didn't last long here.

Cons

I felt unwelcome as soon as I started. All of my co-workers outside of 1 were rude, not helpful in any way and acted as though they wished I wasn't there. I later found out it was because they were all aware that I was being paid more than they were before I started. Pretty sure that is something that shouldn't be disclosed to other employees. Favoritism ran wild at the OKC office. There was another individual who was promoted to adjuster at the same time they hired me for the same job. On a daily basis I was given 5-7 times the workload of this person as they were buddy buddy with the department manager. This person was incompetent and never should have been promoted in the first place. Constantly asked me questions and I basically ended up doing their work on top of mine. They had gotten in trouble with the law, couldn't show up on time etc. etc. but none of that mattered. I took two part-time jobs that I was WAY over qualified for just to get out of there. I have warned multiple people about working at this place.
