Pros

Remote work from home Average benefits Generous vacation time

Cons

This company is excellent if you want to pursue a career as a reinsurance broker, however the Client Support Services department should be avoided. There are not a lot of opportunities to advance within or outside this department. Client Support Services promotions require navigating through multiple layers of management and politics. Management provides little assistance in developing and training their own employees. You are at the mercy of management’s decisions when it comes to career advancement and climbing the corporate ladder. Despite all the embellishments regarding the numerous career opportunities, not every employee can formally advance. New systems that were recently implemented in CSS are horribly flawed and inefficient creating a backlog of work. Benefits and compensation are relatively average, but vacation time is generous. They have a stock purchase plan that offers a very small discount on the company stock. This is not exactly a great perk.

Pros

Very collaborative environment OK work life balance Interesting work

Cons

Limited career advancement if you're not a broker. Raises are embarrassing and there are no bonuses for support staff. Despite all the talk about Diversity & Inclusion, many managers still cling to the Caucasian Affirmative Action hiring system.
