Pros

Opportunity to work with numerous clients in the individual DI and Life space provides you with an unique perspective on the industry. Company does not work in silos so you have an opportunity to interact with Underwriting, Pricing, Admin, Product.

Cons

Very client focused which is a good thing but at times the company wants to be all things to all people. This had a tendency to make work/life balance challenging.
