I've heard pretty good things about them. They apparently have a good culture and good WLB. There's a bit of bureaucracy and upper management to deal with, but honestly I prefer those tradeoffs.

IT directors there usually make between $170k-$180k, not sure about in NJ though. Bureaucracy as someone else mentioned is an issue, but somewhat expected imo. Lot of old-school. traditional thinking over there.

Current employee. The above posts are true. It’s a great place to work but can be annoying with the levels of management. But the salary and work life is hard to beat. Let me know if I can help you in any way or share a referral.

I have a friend that works there! He said the wlb is great and he loves his team. Like E1 said above there can be politics but that feels like any place nowadays. Good luck!

Thanks Md1 - insurance companies titles are bit different for sure!

Returned from maternity leave, I was offered a Revenue Operations Project Manager. I was given a 4% raise (next to nothing), I was asked to sign the paperwork upon my return which was strange.

The manager left the company within 4 days of my joining and now I’m stuck with the sad pay and a hefty job. Not sure what I should be doing?
