Northwestern Mutual Employee Reviews for Voice Communications Specialist

What do you like about working at Northwestern Mutual?

"I like the benefits you get with a large building and good technology and security. They have a free lunch everyday, credit union, convenient store, health center and fitness center in each of the 2 home office locations (Milwaukee and Franklin, WI). This is Northwestern Mutual's Corporate Office, not the McTigue Group."

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

"Make sure you know the company and what they are looking for like the back of your hand. You need to impress with attitude and knowledge. It is very hard to get through the very automated application process to land an interview. They hire more contractors so they can bring help in and out as needed without having to pay benefits."

What don't you like about working at Northwestern Mutual?

"NM doesn't allow for creativity and growth for contractors or low level employees. It makes for a very frustrating environment. Your opinions are not valued, are very micromanaged, and there is so much red tape, actual progress and change is nearly impossible."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"I would allow much more cross training and lateral and vertical moves for contractors and employees."
