The Culture of Society® Insurance

Society's culture reflects our status as a successful, unique regional insurer headquartered in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. We enjoy some advantages over our big-company competitors, including autonomy and flexibility. In the words of President and Chief Executive Officer Jim Thomas: "One of the things I think drives us is that we don't feel compelled to follow the crowd. We dare to be different. We do things our way. Sometimes that's the same as our competitors; sometimes it's different. We don't mind being different, we don't jump on every latest trend, and we don't measure ourselves against industry benchmarks. Our thinking is, if what we do works for us, who cares whether it scores well on someone else's predetermined benchmark?"

Along with Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Rick Parks, Jim Thomas is very active in the company's day-to-day decision-making process. Under their leadership, Society is able to respond to the ever-changing business environment quickly and efficiently.

Our open attitude to business cultivates unusual approaches from everyone, and is the essence of what fuels Society's creativity as a company. Individuality is honored and protected—and that includes diverse backgrounds, cultures, lifestyles, and work styles. Society encourages direct, clear communication and actions. We're flexible in our approaches and practice responsible risk-taking. Individual and team performance is rewarded and appreciated. Our employees know that they make a difference, and that's a big part of what makes Society a great place to work.

Inside the office, the concept of fun is a daily occurrence and is a natural byproduct of the work environment. Not only do work and fun co-exist at Society, but we feel the quality of our work is partially dependent upon the lighthearted, friendly atmosphere in which it's created. Our corporate-casual dress standards strike a balance between respectful and relaxed.

At Society, we care about the total person. That's why we offer free health club memberships at Club Olympia (only two blocks away) in addition to a broad, generous package of benefits. Most of all, Society understands the importance of work/life balance and seeks to help provide that ideal balance for our employees via flexible scheduling options.
