Great culture, lacks competitive pay - Software Developer bei Auto-Owners Insurance: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Pay lags behind the industry, especially for software development. After 5 years I was making about $70k and left for more than twice that amount. Also the tech you work with is not industry standard and doesn’t transfer well. Wfh program was being cut back post covid which was sad to see as it worked so well at the time. It felt like they were trying to justify their new building that they broke ground on a month before the pandemic began. There’s also this weird groupthink that is pervasive that working anywhere else for more money will come with way worse hours and you’ll be miserable. This is quite the opposite of my admittedly anecdotal experience after leaving. The grass was truly greener.
