Pros

The hours are good and they do strive to take a leadership role in the industry. Very strong back-office staff overall relative to the other players. Great future for the company as they are aggresively trying to train the next generation of account executives. Excellent expertise on all areas of reinsurance and well suited to deal with the up and down nature of the industry.

Cons

Cyclical nature of the industry and the vastly different treatment between revenue producing positions and "cost center" positions.
