Pros

Great longtime employees. Cafeteria. Gym. Good benefits. It's a paycheck until you find somewhere safe to work that encourages employees to advance within their skill set.

Cons

Constantly slashing department staff. Outsourcing to India. Moving jobs to other cites - shedding of tenured employees with good salaries. Then instead of promoting from within they hire sub-par managers from outside that don't have a clue about the insurance business. No seriously, they have a "rule" about not promoting within a department for a position that pays more than 10% of current income. Seriously. Great offices . . . except they are all empty and people forced into tiny cubes . . . . lots and lots of empty space. Pay scale is on the VERY low side for many positions. HR is only about hiring. Middle and lower managers are left to do as they please which means there is no consistency as to policies and procedures and nothing in place to address workplace bullying.
