Dull and tedious

Pros

The physical building is pretty nice with some perks like an on site cafeteria, coffee shop, parking ramp and small health club. Salary is competitive. Personal experience with immediate next-level management was positive.

Cons

Company culture is dull and stifling with conservative leadership. For a company of its size, the St. Paul HQ site has an acknowledged and profound lack of diversity. Many employees have been there a long time which has contributed to a complacent and sleepy culture.
