Good Company - but let us work from home! - Underwriter Gore Mutual Employee Review

Wellness days, salary, caring about the community, diversity, WFH hybrid model.

Sometimes takes too long to realize they're understaffed and by the time something is done, staff are exhausted.

Few great colleagues to work with..

This is by far the worst work culture I have seen in an organization (having worked 5+ different places), and I mean specifically the Data Engineering Team (other teams are cool). Project deadlines given by Director as grossly underestimated (or never estimated). The motto here is "let's move fast" which really means "let's do it wrong the first three times then scramble to fix it." The lack of planning up front means constant fire drills and weekend crunches. And before you ask - no, there's no overtime pay, no comp time, nothing. It's just expected. Burnout is the culture here. In terms of tech, No Standards, No Best Practices. Because "you gotta do it fast". 10 year old industry frameworks, which other organisations have already decomissioned is getting build here. The Director is great at making everything look fine outside while the team is drowning. So nothing ever gets fixed and the management never knows it. I just hope when Beneva takes over they clean up this mess.
