Educational and pleasant work environment
Digital Marketing and E-business Intern (Former Employee), Simsbury, CT –
A typical day included assisting the administration with various research topics. I learned how to use various researching tools to acquire information. My coworkers and management were very pleasant and worked very well as a team. The hardest part of the job was leaving to go back to school and the most enjoyable part was being able to work in a friendly – more...  welcoming environment that helped me to learn more about how the company worked. – less

You will work long hours (unpaid) and run the risk, especially in IT, of losing your job.
prefer not to answer (Former Employee), prefer not to answer –
Pros: a paycheck
Cons: you are there to get the paycheck
Constant stress to complete large workloads, tight deadlines, working on your time and vacations is normal. There are learning opportunities but these are tied into your review and are no guarantee of advancement or a good review rating. Management is not your friend no matter what your upper 'Team Mates' say. My co-workers were the best. For years – more...  it was enjoyable to go to work, satisfaction with the job and interacting with everyone. Now the best part of of the job is anytime you are not there. – less

Wayward location
Senior Application Developer (Current Employee), Wayne, PA –
I can't speak for Hartford in general. I work at a remote location that is like a foster child to the big brother Hartford. Our office is on the brink of extinction.

I loved working for the Hartford
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee), Syracuse, NY –
Pros: fantastic development plans, friendship with coworkers, company functions.
Cons: short lunch breaks, expensive healthcare coverage, outsourcing of jobs.
A typical day at work would be answering calls regarding the payment or non payment of workers compensation bills.
I have learned a lot of different skills while working for The Hartford.
I feel that management was fantastic in challenging career development and they always took the time to help resolve any work issues. My coworkers were fantastic and – more...  I have made many friends. I feel that the hardest part of the job was trying to complete work and special project between phone calls. I feel that the most enjoyable part of the job was the recognition received for outstanding work. I all so feel that the company functions were very enjoyable. – less

Renewal Underwrtiting Assistant (Current Employee), San Antonio, TX –
My typical day at work is fast paced. It is very dependent on me having great production and turnaround time. I have learned a great deal about the Commercial Property, Auto and Workers Compensation lines of business. My co-workers are very helpful and often spend time with them out of work. The Hartford has a family feel to it. The hardest part of – more...  my job would be challenging tasks, which I tend to handle very well. There is nothing that I can't do or learn at The Hartford. The most enjoyable part of my job is making the customers happy whether it be a co-worker, agent or insured. – less

Great Company!
Clerical Technician (Former Employee), Charlotte, NC –
Pros: bonuses w/ reviews, whether small or big, offered new position when dept closed.
Cons: company picnic, no extra time w/ lunch, ran out of space for dept to stay together.
The Hartford was my first job in the corporate world. The company's HR at that time was awesome,very supportive ,ethical,and had an open door policy. They cared about the working enviroment, training etc.
I was treated very very, rudely by my trainers ,enough to be in tears,with the thought of quitting.
A Supervisor told HR I was in the restroom crying. – more...  HR said she hired me ,bc she knew I could do the job, and would not stand for me being unhappy at work! HR Mgr demanded I tell everything, added another worker in the Dept to oversee, how the trainers were doing . Report was given and they were reprimanded. HR MGR is now deceased as of 1-2 mos ago. I stayed with the company for 7yrs. – less

Dilbert is alive and well
Claims - Middle Manager (Current Employee), Remote –
Pros: it's a job.
Cons: it's a job, not a career.
Former CEO pillaged the company, now retired. New CEO is great but the organization is plagued with ineptness - horrible pricing decisions, out of touch with the market place, endless bureaucracy, silo'd decision-making.
If you want a job, HIG is a fine place to be. If you want a career, you must be able to function in a dysfunctional world and be pretty – more...  good at shameless self-promotion.
Compensation has a huge "management discretion" component. That's code for either favoritism, manager perception, and/or non-objective assessment. – less
