Here’s what some of our employees have to say about why they work at Symetra:

"I started my Symetra journey through a temp role in Agency Services. I appreciated the flexibility of remote work and the opportunity to learn new areas of the business. Leadership valued my ideas and gave me a chance to contribute and grow, which led to a full-time position. I've been able to join ERGs, expand my network, and continue learning on a range of topics.

I stay because of the culture--Symetra truly invests in its people, promotes diversity and inclusion, and offers great resources to support both career development and work-life balance."   Carena M.R., Unit Manager

"I was referred to Symetra by a family friend who's been with the company for years--and I'm so glad I took their advice. Symetra truly puts its people first. I've always felt supported, not micromanaged, and that trust has helped me grow. I started in an entry-level position and have worked my way up to Unit Manager by continuously learning and expanding my skills.

It's a place that believes in its employees and invests in their success."   Morgan
