Pros
Work from home, PTO, "OK" health benefits/401k
Cons
**1.5 stars **No salary increases. Management has told us there's a salary freeze however according to current CEO Duperreault, this is NOT the case but it's been the running dialogue for years. **Dept. bonus based on percentage of allotted "pool of funds"; example: $100k for all employees, department will give 83% of 100%. If division/company has paid out a lot of losses, a bonus would be lower - or minimal that year. Fortunately that has not been the case - however due to wildfires in CA ('17) & hurricanes, that may not be the situation in '17. **For a larger bonus, mgmt. will say - take on more work, volunteer for projects, take training seminars, IT DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE! No doubt upper mgmt./CEO's get a nice bump annually. **Job opportunities within dept. - limited. From UT, next step is UW - applicants generally need 12-18 mos as underwriter tech & shadow with UW. Several people were promoted to UW (only a UT for approx 6 mos) & did NOT shadow/train as required. Employees found out they're part of an "UW in training" program that's been kept on the down-low. Current UTs who've been vying for UW positions, were passed over. Plain & simple, poor business practices but if you're "in" with management, you have an opportunity to skip the line. Other employees, who've since left the dept., were told by upper management, they'd have no chance to become an UW. Understandably, there are quite a few disgruntled employees, with many looking to find other positions within AIG (outside dept) or outside the company **It's easy to say leave, but as you know, it's hard to find another job
