Pros

International vibe, modern offices, good team spirit, before the pandemic also plenty of opportunities for travel, team buildings etc. Very good benefits i.e. public transport card, recreational vouchers, gym entry etc. Swiss Re has shown a good progress on mental health and diversity front, and has invested its resources in helping its employees during the pandemic.

Cons

As every corporate, you get stuck in many processes and silos. If you don't get a close knit team, one can feel pretty lonely and lost in the crowd (being one of the 2,000 people working in a shared service in Bratislava}. Watch out for burnout and make sure you do benefit from work- life balance that Swiss Re claims in its ethos.

Pros

The people you work with are amazing. The benefits are wonderful. I appreciate the bonus structure and the growth I've experienced with the organization.

Cons

Leadership's strategy and vision are severely lacking and self-serving. There's a lot of favoritism with the same people being included in decision-making without consideration for their ability to actually deliver results. In turn, the lower-level employees are left to clean up the disaster. I see that Swiss is on here making comments on employee reviews - hopefully they take note of how many people in the last 90 days said the same thing about the leadership strategy. We're not on glassdoor because we like reviewing our company - we're here looking for outside opportunities because of the way the company is currently operating. We're bleeding good talent because they no longer align with the corporate strategy.
