Pros

Very good atmosphere, all the people from senior management to admin staff are polite, helpful and friendly. The benefits are pretty good and the amount of training given and support is also very good.

Cons

The IT systems are very out of date and regularly stop you from working and ultimately (I think) hinder the growth of the business. Thats the only real problem.

Pros

Gallagher Bassett overall has a laid back atmosphere and pays well enough for the duties that are required of their employees. The hours are good (flexible time off) and coworkers tend to be very friendly.

Cons

The company's structure is that of a boy's club, where female employees will rarely be offered the opportunity to advance at the rate of their male counterparts. Take into account the fact that there are actually slightly more women than men in claims positions, and the lack of female managers is all the more obvious. The workspaces themselves need a dramatic overhaul as well, as the computers are antiquated and the proprietary software being used by the company (Risx-Facs) is barely functional for a good portion of the day (sometimes as much as a half-hour every single day). This has been in the phase of "we're working on a solution" for at least the past 4 years, and the changes that have been made recently are not optimized to run on the ancient computers, so the amount of freeze-ups are too numerous to count.

Pros

The management made all the difference in the world. You are expected to pull your work load and get the job done, but they acknowledged your hard and made sure you were compensated. They also treated the employee's to perks for a job well done. i.e. ice cream socials, bbq cookoffs, flex hours. They also offered EXCELLENT training programs so you had the tools to do your job...

Cons

The work can get demanding and sometimes weekends are necessary. The turn over has become a problem as well.
