Pros
Flexible hours....nothing else comes to mind.
Cons
Owner has passed, entrenched upper management unwilling to change anything, no data/IT support, no review of marketing numbers, no data driven decision making of any kind. No willingness to change anything. Fire employees on a whim with no notice.
Advice to Management
Get your upper management on-board and update your systems.

Pros
I am a current employee. The atmosphere here at Brokers Risk has done a complete 180. Where before it was an environment of fear and 'lucky to have a job', now employees are treated with respect and our opinions actually matter. Management has gone out of their way to show us that we are important to the success of the company. Little things like after work drinks, random cookies and really fun company outings have...

None compared to a few years ago. If I had to suggest an improvement, I'd go with a better Healthcare company.
Advice to Management
Keep up what you're doing! We appreciate it as much as you have shown appreciation to us!

I have been working at Brokers' Risk full-time
Pros
I have been with this company for quite some time. I am tired of reading all the negative postings. This company pays above average salaries, has good benefits and you work a 7.25 hour day. The management team has made positive changes in the past year and the environment has changed for the better. If you want to be part of a team where your opinion and the job that you do makes a difference, you belong here. To...

Pros
Anyone who has worked here under the previous leadership would likely say that the new leadership is a vast improvement in atmosphere and some would even say the change is like night and day. The work is challenging and provides for appropriate professional growth. I can see how working here might be hard for those without a decent amount of experience, because you need to know your stuff to be successful in a small...

Implement a structured, planned, occasional work from home option for employees in good standing. Many companies have adopted such limited plans and it would be a huge win for management and employees alike.
Advice to Management
Keep looking for ways to engage employees and make people want to work here - change is good for everyone! Trust your people, as noted above, most care about their work product.

Pros
The 1st Friday of the Month Employee Socials are GREAT!
Cons
The CEO is a HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!! I've NEVER seen so many people run to the elevator at 4:15 to leave this place. She's rude, just like her Dad!! I wouldn't be surprised if this company closed for good!
Advice to Management
CHANGE THE MANAGEMENT! THE CULTURE OF THIS COMPANY IS LIKE NONE OTHER THAT I'VE EVER SEEN BEFORE!

Pros
The main kitchen/break area is lovely.
Cons
They do not present the true picture or idea of the workload or work environment. There is NO support, literally...no encouragement or motivation to do better. You maintain the best you can until you can find better. They're is LOTS of nepotism..it's kept in the family & fremily...the long time employees are there cause they don't do anything - or they're about to retire so why go elsewhere. There are new employees but...

Do BETTER!!! Be more PROactive & less REactive. Stop band-aiding situations. Provide adequate resources to do a good job. You CANNOT thrive when you do nothing to encourage growth. I expect you all will be out of business or under new ownership soon. #soonisnotsoonenough

Company is stuck in the past.
Advice to Management
Treat employees like you value them. A once a year Christmas luncheon doesn't count.

You don't work here and I'm sorry that things did not work out for you. We hope that you find the perfect job and can move on. Not everyone is a fit for their job - it doesn't mean that person's skills are less. We wish you well.
