Pros

In the home office, commradre was noticable. People were very friendly and there was a nice work atmosphere. The company does offer some wonderful products, some of which are bar none, some of the best whole life and disability contracts in the industry.

Cons

No room for growth. Upper management just wants to hire their friends. Moved the company (Enfield location) to Springfield...glad I left before this happened. Management is completely clueless. Hired McKinsey Consultants to come in and "clean house" It was not a good atmosphere to be working in. Very depressing

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Cared more about building a program to attract interns than future employees.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
