Pros

The quality assurance department offered generous PTO's and paid holidays. If you were ever asked to work after hour, you were compensated double the time, i.e. you did 2 hours of testing, you can take 4 hours off anytime reasonably soon. The director really tried to treat you well to retain your QA service. The company as a whole offered a 2 For You where every Friday during the summer months, you were asked to end work 2 hours early to start your weekend.

Cons

Like most tech companies, when it's time to reconcile their budget, they'll work to terminate an employee. Whether a Project Manager, a software engineer, quality assurance, etc, the person is placed on a improvement program that seemed a ruse for HR to separate you. I hear they are very generous with severance pay after that.

Pros

I have been a product manager at several companies, and it is genuinely one of the best environments I have worked in. Verisk provides a unique opportunity to work closely with customers, engineering, design, and leadership to solve meaningful problems and deliver products that create business value. Product managers are trusted to help shape strategy and influence key decisions. Teams collaborate effectively, and there is a shared commitment to delivering high quality outcomes for customers. Leadership is approachable and receptive to new ideas, creating an environment where innovation is encouraged.

Cons

Navigating insurance regulatory requirements and customer compliance can occasionally slow feature development and release timelines.
