Pros

My coworkers are the best reason to work here but that won't last long if Economical continues to run the way it's running. Most of the people I know are looking elsewhere where they will actually be valued and treated well as employees - monetarily and emotionally.

Cons

The executives don't actually care about what's going on in the offices. They show up for annual meetings and that's it. No rewards for good workers, and they ignore poor performance by other workers just so they can keep numbers steady. Head office and executives continue to enjoy and celebrate holidays while their front line people (claims staff) are treated like assembly line workers with no rewards. -The only rewards the top performers get is more work that they cant trust the poor performers to do. But the poor performers continue to be paid the same. -Team leaders are not on the same page as each other or the same page as upper management. Things are not communicated down to staff. -Team leaders are not equipped with mental health training when their staff is clearly struggling. As long as we are producing numbers, they are happy, regardless of if we are struggling mentally. -No flexibility in hours or options to work from home. -No room to move up unless you have family working in head office or elsewhere in the company.
