Good place to work - Anonymous employee Travelers Employee Review

Everyone I work with here is great - friendly, dedicated, hard working, professional, but also fun. The company is very aware that their employees are people. They encourage us to use our time off. We have mindfulness trainings. Our medical plan includes things like 8 free therapy sessions and free visits with a lawyer for consults. Also, I genuinely get the sense that Travelers is a good company. We are encouraged to volunteer. When we do, they award us $20 for every hour of community service worked, and that money can be used to donate a charity of our choice. Then, Travelers will match the money that they already gave us. The leadership is working to be zero emissions by 2030 and I believe they will do. It's a great place to work. There are so many different business units, departments, and offices in this company that if your role isn't fulfilling you can probably find another position that will be a good fit. You are also likely to find another office in the country if you have to (or want to) move. The company is very open to people finding the right place for them.

Everyone has a very full plate. It's not an insurmountable amount of work but it will keep you very busy. We also require at least 3 days per week in office in my region, but honestly, it's nice to back in an office with people. You will likely pay more for benefits here but they have different plans depending on what you're looking for.

Travelers is quite likely the best thing that has ever happened to me. Having no prior insurance experience, I randomly found and applied for Travelers. I am a military spouse and had to leave my previously established career for a military move and Travelers couldn't have been in my cards at any better time. Through several difficult situations I have had to navigate, management has been entirely on point with their support and encouragement and I've never felt like anything that I have needed personally was an inconvenience. It's absolutely apparent that Travelers values their employees through their communications and actions. I love that this is a place of acceptance for all fully focused on career development and growth. I can honestly say I have never been happier in a career and couldn't feel luckier to be a part of this organization. I am truly looking forward to many years more of learning, fun and development!

The ONLY con I have is a personal problem and comes with the territory of remote work- I sometimes miss the in-office aspect of being able to communicate with my peers and since I have been able to develop close relationships with them through virtual means, I'd love to have the opportunity to meet them at some point. :)
