Great place to work for

The most enjoyable part of my job was being able to help people with issues and everyday questions that they has regarding their payroll.
I would recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a great place to work.

More Than Just An Employee
Analyst (Current Employee) – McKinney, TX – March 14, 2018
The department and management team that I work for are phenomenal and genuinely care about me, not just as an employee but as a person. They encourage each employee to expand their knowledge base and strive to improve every day.
One of the few long term companies left
Marketing Manager (Current Employee) – McKinney, TX – March 13, 2018
Globe Life provides a relaxed environment, full benefits, opportunity for advancement, and a pension! Many many of the employees have been here 5, 10, 20 years or more. This is an increasing rarity in the corporate world today, which says a ton about how this company treats its employees. Highly recommend.
Pros
benefits, relaxed work pace, suburban neighborhood

Cheers to many more years! Thank you for your feedback and recommendation.
Work policies were poorly thought out.
Quality Assurance Representative (Former Employee) – Omaha, NE – March 9, 2018
Work culture was continually changing, becoming more and more remote in terms of assistance handling difficult situations. Employees were allowed to harass people doing a good job. There was a lot of jealousy and unchecked or unnoticed harassment, at times from direct supervisor.
Pros
Relatively good pay.
Cons
Odd working conditions and often poorly thought out policies.

Overall experience
Senior Health Examiner (Former Employee) – Oklahoma City, OK – March 2, 2018
My time with Globe was somewhat interesting. A typical day as with most companies was clock in morning time, clock out for lunch, clock in after lunch, clock out at end of day.
I did learn multi tasking when working here. It kept my day going and before I knew it, the day was over.
The hardest part was leaving after 16 years.

Conservation Specialist (Former Employee) – McKinney, TX – February 27, 2018
evil company that preys on poor people. call broke people and try to scam them out of their money for garbage insurance. great job if you have no morals
The Actuarial Department of Globe Life is the best!!
Executive Secretary (Former Employee) – McKinney, TX – February 24, 2018
I was at the company for 20 years. In my opinion, I worked for the best department in the company. Management was very good, my supervisor was great and I had the opportunity to learn different job duties. The staff in my department was super to work with and very supportive and caring.
I don't feel there was anything hard about the job, but the most enjoyable part of the job was working with the staff.

Globe Life is not a great Company to work for
Annuity Clerk (Former Employee) – McKinney, TX – January 22, 2018
This job absolutely sucks in management as well as pay. I worked there for 12 years, I had to teach myself the job because the training is horrible. As long as you can do for them they are your best friend, but if you happen to get sick and need time off for any reason they are your worst enemy. I never got in trouble on the job and worked my but off for this company, but when I got sick, I saw just how loyal they were.
Pros
plenty of vacation time
Cons
sucks at management and pay
Not a bad place to work, controlled by corporate office in Texas
Health Claims Examiner, Oklahoma City (Former Employee) – Oklahoma City, OK – January 19, 2018
Processed medical claims. Was hired at a time that the company was way behind in processing claims, so there was a lot of overtime.
Being busy made the day go by quickly. Computer systems were pretty good, I could go through the claims quickly without computer issues.
Learned a lot about the different regulations in different states, and the many different policies we carried.
Local management was subordinate to the Corporate bosses in Texas. In ... 2008? 2009? there was a really bad snowstorm in OKC, had over 6 inches of snow, right before Christmas, but our office couldn't close (even tho the city was shutting down) until they got permission from Texas!
Workplace was comfortable and semi-casual. They even had an indoor smoking only break room. Office was right downtown, great location. Our parking was paid for at a discount.
Job wasn't really that hard. Management was friendly, didn't mind if I sent a claim to them with a question about whether or not it could be paid.
Made good friends! And, the downtown location was right by a park that had free live music and a farmer's market in the summer. Company gave us extra long lunch hours when the annual Arts Festival was running.

Pros
good location, parking paid by employer at discount, good co-workers

Corporate, out of state management... we kept thinking all our jobs would move to Texas someday.
Horrible place to work at
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) – McKinney, TX – January 18, 2018
This company is the worst company anyone could work for. I had never had a job where I would come home as stressed as I did here. It has very poor management and constantly have training classes because they can not keep their people.
Great place to work individually
ESD Clerk (Current Employee) – Oklahoma City, OK – December 12, 2017
My typical day includes different reports to balance allotment payments. The work is very casual but can be stressful at times. Hardest part of the job was the lack of training that involved my jobs.
Pros
Casual dress code, great for individuals who like to work alone.
Cons
Healthcare is expensive, management can be micro managed.
Come in and chill
COLLECTIONS/SALES AGENT (Current Employee) – McKinney, TX – November 27, 2017
It was fun while it lasted, a lot of food is provided for company spreads and holidays. The people I work with are great but the people that we assist are not so great.
Pros
Easy spot to fill
Cons
Difficult target market
Productive, Skillful Knowledgable

Relaxed workplace
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) – McKinney, TX – October 5, 2017

Short breaks and customers are bad
Overworked and Underpaid
Accounting Clerk (Current Employee) – McKinney, TX – September 20, 2017
For my position I am expected to come up with answers at a rabbits pace about items not only was I not trained for but that I am not fully aware of what it is used for. I am constantly being asked by others within and outside the department if I handle something because they were told I do and most of the time I have no clue as to what they are referring to. This position should be salary as the hours necessary to do an accounting position exceed those of a typical eight hour position but instead I am micromanaged on clock in and clock out times and at the same time being asked why I haven't finished something or why I haven't taken a lunch or why I'm working on my lunch and the answer is because I am not given the time necessary to perform my job properly so in order to keep my job I have to use my own time to finish requests.
Pros
Organize my own workload
Cons
Not appreciated for how much I do
Absolutely! We are happy to hear you have such a supportive and encouraging leadership team.
