Pros

Global company, leader on the market, hight opportunities, interesting and challenging products, good social benefits, has also a nice work frame

Cons

In some areas is difficult to expect a transfer in other countries and sometimes due to lack of resources the same job can be done for long time without a perspective of change

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.
