What don't you like about working at A.M. Best?

"Extremely conservative upper management that hasn't yet entirely entered the late 20th century when it comes to employee benefits and perks; for example, it took a threatened strike by the financial analysts to get a 401K implemented circa 2000, and flex time was a dirty word up until 2008 or so. Although the company is supposedly very profitable, it phased out bonuses in 1990 and has consistently cut back on quality of life perks over the years. Employee retention doesn't seem to be a priority. No training for new technologies -- employees are thrown a product and expected to pick it up on the job. (To be fair, there is reimbursement for the cost of courses, but qualification is a pain, possibly deliberately so.) Slow advancement/promotion regardless of performance."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Just because the company is privately held doesn't mean it doesn't have a responsibility to its stakeholders -- treating employees as disposable components doesn't earn you the kind of loyalty that can turn an average employee into a super one. Drop the condescending schoolmarm/disciplinarian tone that permeates every communication from HR. And discover what the 21st century has to offer in the way of benefits for employees."
