FM Global Reviews

Cons

Travel required in some operations can be a negative for some people.

Cons

Vacation is average/below average.
Lots of standards to read through.
Niche training won't carry over well to other companies.
Siloing of roles. You won't get trained in all aspects of insurance.

Cons

Engineers hold every leadership role in the company and guard against anyone with actual knowledge and skills in disciplines such as sales, client service, underwriting, marketing, claims. Couple that with a men’s club mentality at the top and you have a place that is highly unwelcoming to diverse, non-engineering talent. That being said you can see employees coasting all over the place as the executives duke it out. If you’re an engineer, this is your place. If you want an autopilot job, you could be happy here too. If you’re highly skilled and motivated in other aspects of business, don’t make a pit stop here.

Cons

Failing confused management, old school mantality, limited to no growth opportunity.

Cons

Managers are not well prepared. They can be abusive of their role dragging their people to treat their co-workers with resentment. The picture shown to the outside world is very different to what happens behind doors. My personal experience was the worst ever in my entire career. For the only time ever, I experienced humiliation and discrimination from co-workers and managers. It's unfortunately that such a great financial structure that offers such great benefits, does not care more for people instead of just numbers. I would not recommend for any one to stay after seeing the first sign of abuse.

Cons

Not sure what has happened to this company.. All the reviews of how the company has horrible management, no work life balance and a toxic working environment is 100% true. When you first start here, management tries to make it seem like it's all sunshine and rainbows because of the amazing "benefits" you have. In reality, the company is a toxic working environment and people are constantly leaving the company, especially the field engineering role. The company is promoting unqualified employees to fill other positions, who have little to no experience. Employees are being promoted to managers who have no idea what they are doing and causing people to run. Managers choose favorites and gossip about everyone else at the office, as if we are back in high school. If your manager does not like you, they will bully you and do everything they can to try to get you fired or have you quit. You are constantly micromanaged and questioned about everything. You will not be able to grow within the company. Going to HR does not solve any issues because it is just another tool for management. When I told HR about how my manager harassed and bullied me, the only thing HR did was "acknowledge my feedback".
The company has had two bad years in a row, and are taking it out on the field engineers. Stop promoting field engineers to positions they are not ready for. Give field engineers an incentive to stay in the field. Why do you think there are so many losses now?

I would not recommend anyone to come work here. It is a hostile working environment and managers expect you to work all day, even weekends, to get your work done. This company will definitely be sued in the future for what they are doing to employees. The best thing I ever did was leave this company.

Cons

Management started berating employees, insulting without inspiring or motivating. It has always been about cliques but with open discussions of politics & opinions from upper management, it felt like a non-inclusive & non-Safe place to be. It all became about numbers & why management would think that educated people with plenty of opportunities will stay at a toxic place it has become is beyond comprehension. It sure used to be a great place in it’s not so distant past.

Cons

-Employees are often promoted based on tenure, not skill
-Male dominated organization
-Does not offer work from home or telecommuting arrangements
-Not reactive to bad employee behavior or management skills

Cons

Impossible workload, full office, zero diversity, zero morale

Cons

Lack of Work/Homelife Balance.
Vacation is near impossible if you want to prevent a work backlog.
