Pros

There aren't a lot of pros, to be honest. The paycheck clears the bank, that's a pro. The community service day is a nice perk, if you ever have the time to take it. The opportunity to work from home is also nice, but that's reserved for a few people, and working 12 stressful hours at home is certainly not a perk. Otherwise, they have standard benefits. That's about it.

Cons

Management doesn't know how to manage people, business or clients. The overall business management is short-sighted, leadership says one thing and does another, the expectation is one person will do the job or two or more people, constant layoffs, crippling turnover, terrible chaos, no organization, little communication, no established business practices, etc... End result is no respect for employees, no balance work/life, mediocre salaries, never-ending hours, and terrible stress. No real advancement opportunities either, terrible lack of trust from the top down and the bottom up, and disengaged management.

Pros

Distance and salary, hours of work were flexible. Got a chance to work with and visit brokers. Learnt so much about insurance and its origins. Visited Lloyds building which was really interesting.

Cons

Some managers lacked managerial experience, no real culture, teams are segmented, undergoing change so morale was low, some jobs were uncertain as recently merged with another company.

Pros

There are generally good people in higher level management positions. Ecova has a strong culture of collaboration, sometimes to a fault, but the business is better for it.

Cons

Management practices are sometimes inconsistent from department to department, leading to strong development support for some staff and less for others.
