Back to Zurich Financial Services Reviews
Zurich Financial Services – “Good benefits but the work can be mindless and boring”
Pros
Great benefits and salary, excellent work life balance, honest desire to make the place better
Cons
Most decisions are made either through a committee or through one or two key execs. Thus, things move very, very slowly
Lots of management layers, too many politics
A constant "hurry up and wait" approach...everything is an emergency yet no dates/budgets are met
Advice to Senior Management
Things like Agile, SCRUM, or Lean will always escape Zurich as long as the current organizational structure remains. Remove some of the layers and distribute decision making authority more.
