Pros

Opportunity for growth, one company one product, small office environment, hours are great, lots of flexibility with management,

Cons

Not 100% switched over to real time customer database, their billing products are cumbersome, you are unable to access documents on behalf of customers; i.e. Duplicate declaration pages, questionnaires, estimates. Requests have to underwriters have to be duplicated, you must upload and documentation to the insurance company via change requests, you cannot simply email them. products are very different from independent agencies. If you are coming from Independent agency then going to exclusive, it may feel like a culture shock. Their technology is not quite as advances as i was used too.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
