Erie Insurance Group Reviews

Forced 'family' culture (you're an extrovert or you're wrong!), Executive Leaders care more about socializing and networking than they do about having meaningful work/life balance, advancement/growth opportunities are often given to those who network the most, not necessarily who work hard and deserve it, extremely poor communications when it comes to BIG/impactful changes leaving employees in the dark about things that directly affect their day-to-day work, Executives still focus on date-driven approaches to getting things done and out the door instead of allowing the teams to decide what can be delivered and when. There is no true partnership between Biz and IT (still very much an IT-led organization). 'Controlling the message' is #1 priority!!!

Executives refuse to keep up with the industry and, despite increased productivity over the past two years, CEO will not allow full-time remote options to those who were in the office pre-pandemic. This means two things: employees are not paid what they are worth compared to the new market; and both new and long-term employees are leaving in droves. Now, ERIE is making strides to compensate employees by increasing salaries, but is still not yet competitive with the market when it comes to pay or vacation time. Current employees are leaving the company at rates faster than any other time in company history- and senior management is just watching them walk out the door. Talent recruitment and retention is at an all time low- almost 20% of new talent hired within the last year have left, and just under 10% of employees who have been here more than a year have left or are leaving. This is a first- as famously, prospective incumbents tried for years to get hired, and now there are consistently dozens of openings in a company of 6,000. Employees want two things: full-time remote work and competitive pay. And ERIE has neither at this point in time.
