Who We Are 

  

We believe everyone deserves to live their best life. More than a century ago, we were among the first financial services companies in America to serve everyday people from all walks of life.  

Today, we’re part of an international holding company, with millions of customers and thousands of employees worldwide. Our insurance, retirement, and investment solutions help people make the most of what’s important to them. 

We’re empowered by a vast agent network covering North America, with diversity to match. Together with our nonprofit research institute and foundation, we tune in, step up, and are a force for good — for our customers and the communities where we live, work, and play. United in our purpose, we help people create the financial freedom to live life on their terms. 

What We Do

These include 1) World Financial Group, including Transamerica Financial Advisors, 2) Protection Solutions and Savings & Investments, comprised of life insurance, annuities, employee benefits, retirement plans, and Transamerica Investment Solutions, and 3) Financial Assets, which includes legacy blocks of long term care, universal life, and variable and fixed annuities. These are supported by Transamerica Corporate, which includes Finance, People and Places, General Counsel, Risk, Internal Audit, Strategy and Development, and Corporate Affairs, which covers Communications, Brand, and Government and Policy Affairs. 

 

Transamerica employs nearly 7,000 people. It’s part of Aegon, an integrated, diversified, international financial services group serving approximately 23.9 million customers worldwide.* For more information, visit transamerica.com.

Transamerica Compensation & Benefits Highlights

The following summarizes recurring compensation and benefits themes identified from responses generated by popular LLMs to common candidate questions about Transamerica and has not been reviewed or approved by Transamerica.

  • Retirement Support — A company-funded pension alongside a 401(k) match creates a stronger-than-typical foundation for long-term savings. Feedback suggests this retirement depth elevates total rewards even when base pay is described as only “okay.”
  • Leave & Time Off Breadth — Paid time off begins around four weeks in year one with about ten paid holidays and dedicated volunteer PTO. This breadth helps the overall package feel more competitive early in tenure.
  • Healthcare Strength — Multiple medical plan options with recognized carriers are available, and the employer pays the majority of premiums. HSAs/FSAs and dependent care FSAs expand coverage flexibility across locations.
