Beware of Underwriting and Marketing - Recensione dipendente - Senior Underwriter presso PURE Insurance

No work / life balance – I hope you don’t have a family because you won’t see much of them. Impossible workload – be ready to come in early, work through lunch, stay late and then work on weekends for a typical workload. And when you still fall behind your manager will say “this is what is expected!”. Inexperienced managers – hiring 30 something’s with little to no experience in management is the norm here. Management communication to underwriters and marketing is two faced – it is stated that production isn’t looked at on a weekly basis but you can rest assured it is. If your brokers don’t produce to their goal, you will be called in to explain “what have you been doing to drive production?”. Are you serious? As if we can force the brokers to bind the business. Especially when you are jacking up rates. Healthcare blows and executives indicate it is expensive and further cuts are forthcoming . Executive management speaks repeatedly of the company culture, but it is rarely implemented with the employees in practice. The “culture” they speak of is a veil disguise of how to treat the customers (PURE Principles sound familiar?) but again it is not for the employees of PURE. Don’t drink the kool-aid.
