Best Job... Ever. - Anonymous employee Cincinnati Equitable Life Employee Review

As a Field Rep. I am in charge of everything I do in my area. I love that autonomy and the ability to make decisions quickly and in the best interest of my Agents as well as my company. Cincinnati trusts me - that is huge. Cincinnati backs me up when things get weird. My underwriters support my decisions and I support theirs. It has a big family feel to it.

Funding for sponsorship in the field is a bit limited. That can be good and that can be bad. It can be good because it keeps expenses and overhead to a minimum and that helps the stock price and performance of the company. It can be bad in that it becomes a bit more difficult to get the companies name out there in my local market.

Good location, beats a blank.

Not the company it used to be. Zone manager has flings with subordinates 1/2 their age, everyone else is ignored, no advancement, treated with indifference, no longer value experienced UW's, perceived as too much expense, turnover not addressed, can't keep staff, more workload, no raise, new titles worst idea ever, lock good employees into no raise for the rest of their career. Upper mgmt. has no clue, HR could care less. Very sad - very bad state of affairs.
