Pluspunten

- Work/Life Balance - Travel - Professional Development in certification courses - Flexible hours that do not drive you crazy

Minpunten

- Lack of inspiration from upper management: Very mature company in a mature industry. Cannot think outside the box - If Zurich says jump, New York says how high - Non-transferable skill set when looking to leave - Hypocrisy in upper management value message and execution - Lack of vision - Personally believe that Swiss Re, in the next market down cycle, will suffer severe repercussions for their inability to hedge highly exposed balance sheet

Over-engineering in making decisions. Lots of hoops to jump through to get things done.

Pluspunten

1. 12% 401k match 2. Amazing co workers in the trenches but this is rapidly changing as people look for the exits.

Minpunten

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.
