Pros

The only way to see any Pros is if you are "in good" with management. If you aren't, always be prepared to have a target on your back.. You never know when it's your time Go along with the agenda and you'll be fine.

Cons

Too many to list but let's start with this.. I was "in" until I wasn't. I experienced sexual harassment and that manager is STILL there. Yup! If you don't drink the Kool Aid you're considered a Judas and they WILL get you out. Keep opinions to yourself, they ask for input but ultimately don't want it. Work life balance? They don't get it. Trust me and other reviews YOU WILL WORK AT LEAST 60 hours a week! They don't promote based on Knowledge. After all the VP on Personal UW has never even been an UW 😂 Remember, you aren't a person.. You're just that 5 digit EMPLOYEE #

Psychologically damaging environment

Pros

None. Seriously, there are no pros.

Cons

This was the most psychologically abusive environment I've ever worked in. Full of bullies, most of whom are management, zero emotional intelligence, no empathy, retaliatory behavior, work you to the bone for next to no respect or appreciation. Management will flat out target someone and lie about things, all the while hypocritically doing the very things they accuse people of. No one cares about you here. You're just a piece of meat. It was like being in the Twilight Zone and they management team is egotistical and oblivious, thinking they are the best people ever and that selective is the best place. Couldn't be farther from the truth. Toxic environment through and through.

It sounds like the short time you spent with us wasn't the experience we aim to create for our people. We will share your comments with management for review. Best of luck to you in your future endeavors.

Pros

Ability to work remotely, somewhat competitive in salary.

Cons

High workloads plan on working minimum of 60 hours a week. Management does not recognize that this is a sweatshop and holds everyone’s feet to the fire regardless. Have had weeks where I had to put in 80 hours to keep my head above water. Health insurance plan worst I have experienced.
