Pros
* Committed to the community and member financial competency * Decent work/life balance for many...not so much for leadership ranks * Outstanding bonus structure that gets better as you move up
Cons
If you are in IT, PLEASE read this review! This was once the cream of the crop IT job in the insurance industry. But since the merger, the accumulation of American Express cronies and now, Schneider National bullies, have essentially bundled an unruly bureaucratic wet blanket with the slap in your face, "we can get anyone to do your job" culture. EVERY IT project lasts a minimum of one year. 4 months to plan, organize, get approvals, get decisions made, etc. 1 month to let leadership sit on it and then change direction. 4 months to re-plan, re-organize, get re-approved, have decisions re-hashed. 3 months to get 8 months of work done. Some recent moves at the VP level (one left to "find new opportunities" and one got "re-assigned") has made it a little more tolerable, but the pain of this incompetent legacy will live on for many, many years. Read some of the complaints by the Financial Reps in these reviews. Seriously, still on XP, still using Lotus Notes, still using Office 2003, still showing green screen and DOS-based front ends! And these are tools we let OUTSIDE the building and put in front of Members! Its long past time for me to move on. I want my replacement to hopefully read this and run away! Good luck!
