Avantages
LN Risk is a large company with 4 underlying business units: Insurance, Business services, Healthcare and Government. Each feels like an autonomous unit even though they are parts of the same company. Insurance is the largest business by revenue and is a fairly stable place to work. Recent reorganizations within the past 2 years made sense. Management is stable, people have a lot of tenure within the company and /or the insurance industry. If you want a decent job with not too many challenges and a stable paycheck, this is a good place though the products are not too exciting / cutting edge. You can learn a lot in terms of developing products, creating dashboards, processes around product management. Likely though you will not work with very innovative projects. People are nice, helpful and value good input. Management (CEO) wants the company to succeed and is very vested (sometimes at too granular level) in the projects and success of the company.
Inconvénients
Overridden by processes, fit-in-the box type of mentality, bureocracy, too much buy-in from every possible place to get product to the market. Takes a LOT of time to get a new product to market and you have to be somewhat in the right place at the right time (bit of a luck) to be put on a good initiative. Otherwise, despite title and knowledge, you may be stuck in the background. Can feel like a boy's club though in the past 2 years there has been a push to diversity. Quite risk-averse culture, too much "proofs", POCs, market feedback, process to follow GTM check-lists, get legal approvals make the product development process heavy and slow down progress.
