Pros

Balboa is now owned by QBE Americas. I can't speak to the new company because I was let go prior to new ownership. What I can attest to is the people I worked with at Balboa were great. I'm glad to have met many new friends and I learned so much while working there. I was given opportunities while there.

Cons

There were communication issues between senior management and staff. There were also issues with favoritism. Many promises were not followed through on. There was poor oversight of staff and audit department was not up to standards of other leading insurance companies.

Pros

Nice, friendly people. Long-term employees have tremendous knowledge about a niche industry

Cons

The company (used to be Balboa, now QBE North America) used to be a great company but after being owned by Countrywide, Bank of America and now QBE it has lost its appeal. 90% of the IT associates have been replaced by an outsourcer, diluting away the ability to do custom solutions which used to be a competitive advantage. Don't know how this company can compete in that niche anymore.
