    Employees at this insurance brokerage earn “chips” by completing activities such as submitting ideas to their suggestion box, referring a new client or employee, or participating in wellness activities. Each chip counts as a chance to spin the Assurance “Wang Chung Wheel” at quarterly Assurance Casinos for a chance to win up to $300 cash. Read the full Great Place to Work review.
