Underwriter - Underwriter Risk Administration Services Employee Review

Pros

Not much, it’s a job if you’re totally desperate or only look at it as a short term stop in your career before you move onto better things, which are definitely out there.

Cons

Three underwriters have departed in the past 5 months. It continues to be a broken record for RAS. They turn over their underwriting staff every couple of years. It’s been this way the past several years, quite a revolving door. It’s a pretty sad state of affairs when the most tenured underwriter has been there barely over two years. The only constant is poor management. The underwriters wrongly get blamed for everything by UW management, and the ownership and HR has bought into this for years. Until they figure out the problem is not the underwriting staff, but the management - nothing will ever change.

Pros

Incredibly affordable benefits. Great IT team and software. If you work in or near Sioux Falls there is a 3-2 hybrid schedule. Self directed work day. Recent remodel to headquarters.

Cons

Remote workers get a lot more slack if kids or sick or weather is bad. That can feel like a double standard. Wide difference between workloads depending on the jurisdiction you handle.
