Pluspunten

The work environment is plesant with a safe location. Pay is commensurate with the industry standards for this position. The benefits package has been fine...hopefully our 401k's will recover in the near future. It's not a bad company to work for, but like other businesses they are cutting corners with the workforce. I would recommend it as a good place to work.

Minpunten

Until recently, it appeared that job security was good if you were performing your job satisfactorily, but there were some layoffs, and an entire units function is being moved down south. Can't say if this is soley due to cutting expenses related to the economic downturn, but it does make you realize that there isn't really much job security anymore. The work load can be a challenge for the amount of hours you have to put into a day. We'd all like enough hours to do our jobs in the manner in which we are expected, but the amount of files assigned make that difficult. Generally, each employee wants to provided great service on new losses in a timely manner as expected. The weekly volume makes it difficult to adjust and close out the mass of existing files.

Minpunten

As an experienced major loss adjuster with decades in the industry, I found this to be one of the most heavily micromanaged claims environments I have worked in. In my experience, file management was closely monitored with significant emphasis on diary compliance, activity metrics, documentation, and "clicks," leaving little opportunity to focus on thoughtful claim handling. The expected inventory was communicated to be approximately 150 to 175 exposures, which I found difficult to reconcile with the level of investigation, litigation management, and customer service expected on complex claims. Despite hiring experienced adjusters, there was virtually no autonomy in managing files, and independent claim judgment was significantly limited by constant oversight and administrative metrics. Training did not adequately prepare new adjusters to navigate the company's proprietary software, numerous internal policies, and complex coverage determinations, including issues involving unlisted drivers, unlisted vehicles, and policy cancellations for non-payment of premium. I found the performance standards and metrics to be unrealistic given the workload and the level of training provided. Management communication was frequent and often disruptive. In my experience, there were regular interruptions throughout the workday by phone calls, Teams messages, emails, and redundant diary reminders, making it difficult to maintain focus on complex claims. Expectations regarding video calls were also inconsistent. I was initially told that my attire during unscheduled video calls was not a concern, but later instructed to dress professionally at all times because supervisors could initiate video calls without notice. Although the company emphasizes inclusion and employee support, my experience was that management's actions did not always align with those values. After raising concerns through HR regarding management, I was placed on a Performance Improvement Plan shortly thereafter and ultimately my employment ended. That was my personal experience, and prospective employees should consider it when evaluating the company's culture. This position may be a good fit for individuals who are comfortable working in a highly structured, metrics-driven environment with constant management oversight. However, if you value professional judgment, autonomy, consistent expectations, and the ability to independently manage complex claims, my experience suggests this may not be the right environment.
