      Pros

      Everyone is very engaged with the company and top management (at least in the headquarter) makes sure it stays that way by pampering their employees with benefits and luxuries. Team spirit was excellent for me and I never heard anything below 'mediocre' on that regard. Work is challenging and for me engagement and 'going the extra mile' was rewarded and recognized. The facilities are absolutely top notch and by far the best I have ever seen.

      Cons

      This is probably more a industry problem than a company problem, but things tend to move a bit slow in terms of bigger decisions and structural adjustments. The fact that everybody celebrates the company causes a lack of self-criticism.

      It’s great to hear that the supportive environment and people‑focused culture resonated with you during your time at Swiss Re. We recognize that larger organizations can naturally move a bit slower, we’re continually working to make processes smoother for our employees. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.

      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.
