Pros

Nice offices, great canteens, salary and (sometimes) bonus can be good. HAD great staff - made many friends and colleagues who I continue to stay in touch with.

Cons

Restructuring constantly seemingly without end. Lost many really good employees due to nonsense changes and creation of team structures that have no real value. Personally, I was moved to be line managed by someone who I rarely spoke with and had little to no idea what I did as he was not related to the projects in any way. Strange recruitment policies (perhaps not even legal in some countries).

Pros

1. 12% 401k match 2. Amazing co workers in the trenches but this is rapidly changing as people look for the exits.

Cons

1. Management - the new management team has a maximum personal bonus / profit only mindset. Cost cutting reigns. 2. Constant layoffs. No job is safe. 3. Company has offshored many jobs to India and is in a race to move key underwritering, engineering, claims functions to India as well. Overall, it feels more like a private equity gut job than a publicly traded company.
