Anyone work in insurance accounting and is it worth it? I have a potential job offer at a large insurance company but am concerned at niche industry. Could potentially be a 20% increase in salary.

I wouldn’t do it. But hey the pay is probably solid. I worked for a reinsurance company and it was a pretty sleazy company. Didn’t exactly “feel good” working for them. They were notorious for never paying out legitimate claims to the point where it was probably fraud.

Ha yea they don’t have a true accounting team if that’s the case. You could probably help them improve a ton if it’s that slow there

Should you discuss salary range with an internal company recruiter prior to setting up an interview? With external recruiters it’s pretty easy to talk about the expected range. I am trying to avoid wasting all of our time if i get to the last interview and they are expecting a salary that is too low for me.
