Pros

Overall - this is a solid place to work. They have an excellent training and second heading culture.

Cons

Salaries are significantly lower than the marketplace. While total compensation is good when overall results are favorable. Total compensation is below average when results are not stellar, regardless of employee work performance and your contribution to the underwriting success of your unit. Promotions for top performers are slow and based more on time than performance.
