You Get What You Put In - Underwriter Frank Cowan Company Employee Review

People are great and genuine. The history of the organization makes you want to be proud to work for such a historic company, however sadly that only takes you so far!

Stuck in the ways of the past. Very slow to acknowledge and implement any changes. The Managers were made Managers because they were there the longest and sadly this does not work for the Millennials of today's world. The Princeton location is historic but it is old and very much out of date. Work stations are as old as the staff working there and the building is falling apart.

This is from the experience as a co-op software dev working in the IT department. It was a decent place to start learning basic software development when I was there. It could have gotten better or worse since I finished. There wasn't ever an overwhelming amount of work to do, I could usually go at a relaxed pace.

There was occasionally some workplace drama and could sometimes be a stressful environment. Some of the technologies used were pretty outdated and the code was poorly documented so there was a lot of time spent figuring out how things worked. If I completed tasks too fast there would sometimes be a delay in recieving new tasks which forced you to work slower.
