Pros

There are many opportunities to take ownership and responsibility if you prove yourself to be competent and proactive. The company rewards high performers well and, unlike other companies in the city, offers a decent work/life balance.

Cons

Politics is rife and the company is struggling with the shift towards technological leadership, however this does appear to be changing.

Good support and good people

Large company does mean that Tech/HR support usually involves an 800 number and call center.

Pros

Great role to transition into the insurance industry. Many resources and opportunities to expand technical knowledge. Client visits are great if you like to travel. Lucky to have a manager who doesn’t micromanage. If you’re organized, driven, and good at communicating you’ll do great.

Cons

Can be stressful at times around busy renewal cycles. Travel often depending on industry and clients.
