Pros

This is a place to start a career for people without other options; mostly recently graduates from second tier universities in need of visa sponsorship. The work isn’t really demanding. Most people leave after 2 years or when they find something better.

Cons

Constantly having to react to new “priorities”, as the road map for mode development changes on a whim. Constantly having to pick up work from people who left; no documentation, no explanation, lots of bad legacy code. Crappy benefits. They used to have good insurance and then that got taken away. Meager salaries. The yearly increase is only 2%. No advancement. Promotions are few and far between.

Pros

I have been a product manager at several companies, and it is genuinely one of the best environments I have worked in. Verisk provides a unique opportunity to work closely with customers, engineering, design, and leadership to solve meaningful problems and deliver products that create business value. Product managers are trusted to help shape strategy and influence key decisions. Teams collaborate effectively, and there is a shared commitment to delivering high quality outcomes for customers. Leadership is approachable and receptive to new ideas, creating an environment where innovation is encouraged.

Cons

Navigating insurance regulatory requirements and customer compliance can occasionally slow feature development and release timelines.
