Can someone explain insurance taxation? What would a busy season for an insurance company look like for a tax analyst?

I work with insurance companies from a specialty b4 group. TBH the hours seem better than a lot of other financial services clients both from the service provider and the client perspective. There’s a lot of specialty regulations around insurance companies, and there’s also some specialty tax forms for insurers I believe, so it could be a lot to learn if you have no experience. My understanding for busy season is that you’d have technically 4 busy seasons a year for each provision but they wouldn’t be as long as your average tax busy season either. Not sure on the hours from the client side but the people I interact with don’t seem bogged down and miserable from being overworked.
