Pros

Great work life balance. Good bonus. Training opportunities are available to those who want them. Free onsite gym with tons of equipment and classes.

Cons

Raises are minimal and promotions are rare. Management has a clear bias toward underwriters, so actuaries, claims staff, and operations personnel are treated as second class citizens. Which means, Less money and fewer advancement opportunities.
