PHILADELPHIA INSURANCE COMPANIES Employer Reviews

Love my job. It is challenging and a lot of work busy all the time.

I was only at this company for a short time as an intern so my experiences with the company are limited. What I can say is that the pay is nice, the hours are comfortable, the computer system is easy to use, and the work is not overwhelming. However, it does get pretty quiet in the Glen Office since there are only 3 people that work there regularly – more... and more often than not, at least one is out of the office. – less

• Assist with underwriting functions, including data collection, analysis and presentation
• Assist with company marketing campaigns, including client relationships and promotions

PHLY is a company that recognizes hard-working, motivated individuals and provides them with the opportunity to excel. The company leaders take pride in motivating, energizing and guiding their employees towards success. The company is built upon the “show up every day” mentality and being passionate about career and goals.

Sr. Mgmt not concerned with employee engagement, management by fear is typical.

HR has been a revolving door of Sr. Leadership, which tells you a lot. Innovation not encouraged. Just follow the status quo.

PHLY is a great place to work, and has great incentives for their employees.

Well run and managed company. Strong work hard and play hard ethic. Senior management very supportive of fitness and work life balance. Great people.

VERY busy, stressful environment.

Short staffed - people who leave are not replaced.

My time at this company was cut short due to the removal of my department. To summarize this values and direction of the company was favorable and was a place I envisioned myself with for a long time before my time was cut short.

Not much more to say than that. I loved the position, and everything that went along with it. Management was focused on numbers generated in reports to evaluate performance. This is a good indicator, but only to an extent. For example, a complete newbie that knew nothing about what what they are doing can easily outperform an experienced profession, – more... simply because they don't slow done to look at what they are doing. Part of the job, in theory, is to note irregularities or concerns with applications. Speedy Gonzales never takes the time, but his/her performance never reflects that fact. – less

Company communication is good. It's always fairly easy to have a good grasp of what's going on in our company, within the industry, etc. Goals are clearly defined.
Current economy has put a stall on raises. Bonuses are harder to achieve. I'm told this company is on the lower end of the pay scale for many positions. But there are a lot of little extras – more... that you could take advantage of (gym membership reimbursement, tuition reimbursement, longer lunch hour if you choose to work out).
Vacation/sick time is nothing to complain about, pretty average I think. – less

This company is great if you like to run triathlons, but not so great if you want to get promoted. Unless of course you are related to them.
