The Most Mismanaged, Stressful, and Demoralizing Workplace I’ve Experienced - Licensing and Contracting Specialist National Life Group Employee Review

Pros

Some benefits, not much else

Cons

New employees especially in the Transfers department are thrown into complicated roles with zero real training, no documentation, and no support, yet the company expects perfection. Managers who aren’t trained themselves are somehow responsible for our performance reviews, which is unbelievable. The workload is unrealistic, the stress is nonstop, and the weekly meetings are pointless and never improve anything. Mistakes (which come from lack of training) are handled by publicly embarrassing employees in front of others, while rude and disrespectful coworkers face absolutely no consequences. Favoritism is blatant, support is nonexistent, and the company makes it painfully clear that customers and agents matter more than the people doing the actual work. It’s a toxic, draining environment where employee concerns are ignored and nothing ever changes.

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. Building a culture where everyone is shown respect is critical; what you’ve shared is not the type of organization we’re working to build. We encourage you to please share your concerns with your manager, your People Center Business Partner, or directly with me so we can address these issues. My door is always open. Michael Veilleux

Pros

Good pay, nice people to work with but as a consultant I feel a bit on the "outside".

Cons

Every single person that is an Executive Vice President is a man with the only woman being the CEO's Executive Assistant. Clearly you can see there is a distinct "known" here at this company.

We recognize that diversity has historically been an issue in our industry. However, if you look at our corporate board, we're actively working to diversify and will continue to make sure we consider all aspects. We will always focus on adding the most qualified talent to all of our roles across the entire organization. If you would like to connect further regarding this, I would welcome the opportunity to talk. - Michael Veilleux, Chief People Officer
