Pros

Bi-Weekly Paycheck 401k match up to 6% Caring Direct Management

Cons

High stress environment. Anxiety builds up to the point it debilitates employees from getting work done. Multiple layoffs each year keeps employees fearful. Continuous talk of expense control but continuous hires of senior management positions. Workload is unmanageable and sometimes take a PTO to try to catch up and not be bothered. Diversity and inclusion does not include everyone. Managers have little ability to make decisions. Underwriters have no freedom. Not uncommon to have 7+ people involved in making an underwriting decision. No growth opportunities for current employees. Outside recruits are better positioned for more senior roles. Horrible senior management.
