Pros

A global corporation with strong brand awareness and effective marketing. One of the 10 largest companies in the world. Though still a relatively new company in the US, there is a natural interest from people outside the company. ING provides excellent benefits package to employees. Necessary training and continueing education provided. Enjoyable and encouraging work atmosphere. Managers are typically understanding and supportive of employee's needs. A strong product line makes selling easier. The commitment from senior management to make necessary changes keeps ING competitive. Employees have access to extensive resources including product and industry information, technology and tools, various training programs, and expert knowledge in many departments.

Cons

It can sometimes be difficult conducting business, due to the company size. Clients and employees alike are occasionally passed around before getting to the desired place. Highly political organization, which makes promotions easy for some and difficult for others. Working for ING or any financial services company is particularly difficult right now, due the economic conditions. The sales of financial services are scrutinized more by potential customers than previously, while the amount of support needed by existing clients has increased. Those employees on the sales side must also be willing to engage in some service activities, and those on the service side must do the reverse. Those in the field understand this, though home office often does not.

Pros

The culture is very relaxed and the environment is friendly. I was just an intern but I felt as if I were treated with the same level of resprect as a full time hire. As an actuarial intern with no exams they paid quite well and they made it fun for interns as far as outings and out of work events go. The formal intern program is really helpful, managers are nice, and the company is very reputable. I definitely enjoyed my summer at ING. The newly built facility in Windsor, CT is also very nice. I would definitely recommend this company to a friend.

Cons

Location, location, location!!! Hartford is probably the most boring place I've ever been and in fact this is why I'm avoiding a full time job here. As much as I loved the company, I can't see my self 21 years old living in Hartford. Its more of a city for those with families that are looking to settle down and live a slow paced life. Its a nice place but not exactly the ideal environment for a new college graduate/entry level hire. In fact, I here that this is a big problem that the insurance industry has (good talent not wanting to live in Hartford). As far as the company itself, I cant think of anything bad to say.
