Pros

Backed by Tokio Marine, one of the world’s premier insurance companies. PURE is an all around great company.

Cons

401k matching is average. Some of the new hires are starting out with way higher salaries than years ago. They could do more to get employees of four years to a higher level. There was a recent $2,500 increase to address this issue but it didn’t do much if you look closer at the numbers. A high performing Underwriter II shouldn’t be making $5K more than an Underwriting Analyst a year out of college. However, there is much room for career growth and compensation increases. Senior Underwriter and beyond is well into the six figures.

Pros

Coworkers, solid 401k matching, health benefits

Cons

One of the hardest lessons I learned early in my career was that not every workplace is healthy, and that toxicity can become normalized when leadership and HR reinforce it. Employees were routinely gaslit into working long hours for minimal pay, taking on excessive workloads due to chronic understaffing, and overcompensating simply to stay afloat. Any attempt to set reasonable boundaries was met with reprimand, pressure, bullying, or eventual push-out (which appears to be the default approach). With the current leadership, this culture is unlikely to change, and it’s unclear whether that is a concern at all. PURE’s culture offers only two paths: full, unquestioning compliance (regardless of personal cost) or being quietly pushed out. I chose self-respect over compliance, rebuilt my confidence in the workplace, and found a company whose leadership genuinely recognizes, appreciates, and celebrates my success. I promise, you can too!!!
