Reviews about "great benefits"
Return to all Reviews- 5.0Apr 13, 2022Senior Engineering Specialist ICurrent Employee

1 - 2.0Apr 19, 2022Anonymous EmployeeCurrent Employee, more than 10 years
Pros
- Great benefits and job stability. - There are many talented individuals - Very successful business model
Cons
- External candidates are treated better than internal employees (there > one year). - Promotional opportunities are limited, and mainly granted 3-5 years too late. If you want to grow at the pace you deserve then you must leave. - Many people stay because they are comfortable, not because they want to be there. This causes a very low moral. - Everyone in management ultimately looks out for themselves: They tout leadership principles, but very few follow/practice them.

Pros
They pay you well and have great benefits.
Cons
They don't treat their employees with respect. I feel like they think by giving us food and a raise everything will be okay. But not everyone responds positively to that. You walk into work and you can feel the negative energy. Seems like everyone hates working there. Office is super quiet - no fun allowed it seems like.

Pros
They have a great benefits package which includes a pension and 401k with match.
Cons
They require vaccination as a condition of employment. There is a lot of office politics and they are constantly restructuring the organization.

2 - 4.0May 26, 2014Engineering SpecialistCurrent Employee, more than 10 years
Pros
Really good training program and excellent tools to work. Great benefits such as 100% paid pension plan and 401(k).
Cons
Base salary is very attached to the job market of the city or town you live even if you work in other areas were the job market is better. Also the base salary is usually much lower than midpoint of salary range when compared with competitors. Work-life balance is affected due to non-sense travelling.

Pros
BIGGEST PRO: FM Global truly cares about the people and making sure you enjoy great perks, compensation, and benefits. - Great work life balance, flexible hours, occasional work from home (occasional!), etc. - Work environment truly depends on your manager. - Great benefits such as 100% paid pension plan and 401(k). - Lots of training opportunities. - 6-weeks bonus potential. - FM Global's strong business model is resilient to both strong and weak economies. - Great renovated work environment, people are humble, and very friendly. - Good compensation when considering the overall benefits package. - Lots of opportunity for horizontal career changes (easier to move laterally than up the chain).
Cons
BIGGEST CON: FM Global is a very conservative company, so things take a long time to actually get traction and move forward. You are constantly having to “play the good soldier” and stay in line. They aren’t big on radical changes or ideas. - Be prepared to convince someone else your idea was there's in order to get any support. - Work life balance skews the wrong way when you are good but that isn’t always rewarded or recognized. - Middle management not given the power necessary to make needed decisions, which slows down progress. - Difficult to move up the chain. People stay with the company for a long, LONG time, which reduces advancement opportunities for others.
