Professional environment. Hey, it's a job!

Minpunten

Not allowing telecommuting is a huge CON! Almost everything I do is via computer so coming in 5 days a week is absolutely not necessary. I don't mind coming in, but between gas, tolls, parking, and wear-and-tear on my vehicle, just getting to work takes up almost half of my take home pay. In addition, they give 17 paid time off (PTO) days per year (THIS INCLUDES SICK DAYS). If you get sick once you can forget about going on vacation. That is just not a realistic amount of time to be sick, see doctors for regular check-up visit and also have personal and vacation time. What about if your children are sick? It's extremely NON-competitive in that sense. I have less days off per year than anyone I know. It makes balancing work and life very difficult and is bad for mental well-being. In addition, the salary is NOT very competitive, the trend is to come to ISO, gain experience, and then go to another company and make twice as much. It that sense, they should offer more incentives to stay.

Pluspunten

Friendly atmosphere and flexible hours. Solid benefits package. Employees are encouraged develop as insurance professionals and not criticized for taking exams regardless of the outcome. New employees receive excellent training and more often than not good mentors when they first come to ISO.

Minpunten

No one has a clear understanding of how the promotion system works as you may see individuals with a distinct skill set and numerous accomplishments having the same or a lower rank than other people in the same division who are not nearly as talented or accomplished. This leads many veterans to accuse the promotion system of being more influenced by personal relationships and connections than actual performance. There is an initiative to seek out talented individuals to fast track them into management roles but the huge flaws in that logic are that a) there are few management positions available because underperforming managers are hard to eliminate no matter how many workers they may alienate b) not every good worker is suited to be a manager and c) there is no attention paid to what happens when an excellent worker gets promoted and there aren’t qualified analysts to fill their position. The lack of attention and resources directed towards the pool of talented workers who are not in management has led to many individuals burning out and becoming complacent or leaving the company as their voices are either not heard or disregarded as there have been few, if any substantive changes in procedures over the past decade.
