Chicago, IL (US)

Former Employee – worked at Old Republic full-time for more than a year

ProsLocation is good -- on Michigan avenue and centrally located.

ConsThe people I worked with here were just plain mean. Sexual Harassment was rampant and nothing was done about it. HR was a joke. At best it was an extremely boring place. I have worked at a few different companies -- this was by far the worst ever -- a living hell. Keep your sanity and stay away from this place!!!

Advice to Senior ManagementThe management is stodgy and set in their ways -- so any advice offered would not go far -- I will save my breath.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

San Ramon, CA (US)

Current Employee – been working at Old Republic

ProsThe people!! There is a high level of commitment to individual and company success that shows in the decisions made and actions taken.

ConsKnowing that there may be times when a plan holder will be disappointed because we don't cover "everything". Many plan holders have not read the plan and do not know what items are covered, so become frustrated when something they felt should be covered is clearly listed as a not covered item.

Advice to Senior ManagementShare more information. When everyone knows the goals and challenges, they can become involved in solutions and strategies.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
