Wish they cared more for their clients and employees than the almighty $$
|
|
None that I can think of
|
Working conditions. People leave and they don't replace them. Just re-distribute the workload to the point of everyone being overloaded

A fine place

Good knowledge of employees
Good office and work/home balance

Upper management is very disconnected from what's best for day to day operations.

An M&A firm first, insurance brokerage second
|
|
Employment opportunities for those with M&A, PE, and strategic implementation experience. 401k employer match started back up again in January. No layoffs as of late. Work from home will be an option moving forward. Salesforce will be utilized in the future. If you have an equity stake the value is greatly increasing. The company has a legit private equity partner in Kelso so there is fast growth via M&A. If you sell your company to Risk Strategies you may end up with an executive level position.
|
Kelso owns a majority stake and controls the company. Risk Strategies never tells its employees this truth. There is very limited/no investment in organic growth. Teams are not given additional resources to help them grow. Integration is lacking. The 401k employer match is a lowly $3,000. Benefits are not that good for a company of this size. No salary growth and very limited bonus if any at all. Most employees were doing better a few years ago. "Selective hiring" of new employees. Turnover is really starting to pick up. Hardly any promotions. Don't trust the metrics the company tells you as they can't track everything with all the acquisitions. Really no potential for employee growth as Kelso is tightening the belt and cutting every cost possible as a sale will come soon given the typical PE holding period.

Kelso, sell sooner rather than later to a large insurance organization so employees will have better growth opportunities.

Great people...mostly
|
|
Excellent benefits, personable executives, lots of women in corporate positions. The workload is steady, but not terrible.
|
They never fire anyone, even those who repeatedly slack off or cause problems within their department. Not much of a back up plan for your work if you go on vacation.

Get rid of employees that consistently slack. These people do not care about the customer, their coworkers, or the company.

So much potential...
|
|
Good people. Great benefits. Flexible.
|
Heavy M&A culture - easy to get overlooked. Systems are a bit of a mess which leads to a lot of confusion between teams. Also, pay can be a bit stingy. For a half billion dollar company, there is a lot of pennywise pound foolishness as of late and the employees notice it. Not clear if senior management is aware of the grumblings.

Need to invest in your people more. For a company of this size, there is a troubling lack of opportunity to move up the ranks unless you are a former owner or you are hired from the outside.
