"disappointing"

in West Bend, WI

Please give us a one liner to describe this review.

"Worked here for 6 years and at first it was awesome, but not w/ change in Execs."

What do you like about working at West Bend Mutual Insurance?

"Proximity to home. The overall community's vision of the organization is a benefit."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Overall, it's a good company to work for in any department except IT"

What don't you like about working at West Bend Mutual Insurance?

"Executive management does not understand what it takes to get the job done. They take the IT staff for granted and belittle their involvement in the bottom line of the organization. The idea of 'getting more done with less (staff)' is really getting tiring. Hiring 40+ consultants in IT instead of looking for full-time qualified IT staff to do the same work."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"To spend a week or a day in some of the employees shoes -- those that actually do the work that results in the bottom lines you like to report and reap the benefits for. Realize that all of the staff, not just select few exist and do have lives outside of the company; just like they do."

Data Analyst at United States Government
in Lansing, MI

What do you like about working at United States Government?

"Very little. You don't lose seniority when switching to another department."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"If you are intending to try for management, ask current managers for mentoring opportunity. It is too easy to get stuck in the analyst series for 10+ years or more!"

What don't you like about working at United States Government?

"Top Administrators changes every 4 years or less. We are driven & tossed by elections. Current boss doesn't want to learn our software, so is trying to make everyone here convert to the software he already knows. Current boss is a new manager, & is pretty lousy at it at this time -- can't keep a steady course & keeps changing his mind & forcing me to redo things over & over."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Try to stay on a steadier course, rather than having his staff re-do the same project over & over each time the boss changes his mind."
