Pros

- Benefits are terrific, as they should be from a financial broker whose subsidiary deals in such things - A large percentage of the people come from the era when the company was fun and only loosely controlled by the parent company

Cons

- The ever changing organizational structure, including some volatile management changes - Despite an attempt to stay with current technology, supporting internal technology is ancient - Salaries and bonuses are not competitive - Colleagues do not have the autonomy that is befitting of a technology company to inspire innovation

Pros

Instability in leadership over the past 4 years caused the company to lose focus. The new leadership group combined with Marsh leadership, has now identified a path for STARS. There is excitement, and a renewed focus on the product. If the company can stay focused, happy days could be ahead at STARS. - Excellent Benefits as part of Marsh - Flexible Schedule with WFH options - Penny pinching days seem to be behind over - Renewed focus on customers - Great People, very dedicated

Cons

- Extremely Conservative Mother Ship (Marsh) - Dreadful Office space and configuration (Chicago, Atlanta & Amarillo) - Tied to Marsh IT policies and hardware - No defined Career ladder (been working on it for years) - Compensation not in-line with industry standards (keep hearing how things are changing) - No HR presence. Constant turnover in HR, does speak well for the organization. There are obviously some underlying issues here.
