Symetra Employer Reviews

Symetra is attempting to change everthing that once was and make it new. This means a lot of growing pains and morale is very low. Management doesn't have a clear vision of the changes and what impacts they will have. The changes are in the right direction but they are starting to affect performance and it is difficult to get things done. The people – more...  are the best part of this organization. They truly care about their customers and getting things done. – less

Symetra is a dynamic company to work for. There are strong career opportunies given the aspiration the company has to advance in the financial services and insurance industries

I've been provided with so many new opportunities during my time with Symetra. I've grown my leadership skills, tackled new projects, and am now learning a whole new field. The saying, "You learn something new everyday." is an understatement.

I started at Symetra in July 2011 after relocating to the PNW. I didn't know anything about the company but was curious to learn more after seeing the brand on one of the buildings in downtown Bellevue. Since I've been here, I've found my coworkers to all be very supportive and willing to help with training. My management team trusts that I will do – more...  my job and provides me with the freedom to determine my own best way to get results.I still have a lot more to learn, but I'm confident that I'll have the resources to do so. – less

I'm a 16-year employee who has seen a lot of change in my time at Symetra. Through it all, I feel we are a company with employees who care about our customers, our distributors and each other.

Since we were sold in 2004 and became an independent life insurance company, we've admittedly had some growing pains, but change always creates opportunity. – more...  New ideas and engaged employees are welcome!

If you have a passion for helping people protect their families and businesses from financial loss and ensure a financially secure retirement, Symetra is a great place to be. – less

I've worked at Symetra for several years now, and so glad I made the choice to come here. I appreciate my manager's flexibility with me as I try to balance a busy life outside of work, while still holding me accountable for strong results and pushing me to new levels. I've had a lot of opportunity to take on new challenges. My co-workers are great - – more...  I look forward to coming to work! I appreciate how people here treat each other professionally. – less

Many changes, growing, lots of opportunity! I have a fantastic manager!

Very poor training and not very good at maintaining morale.
