Pluspunten

SR pays well with good benefits, if you could be an obedient person to your manager then you will receive support and good learning and development opportunities. Good marketing effort, loud company value advocate, good communication material (sometimes overflown and overwhelmed). A few good leaders

Minpunten

Senior management sucks, they all carry their own personal agenda to exist. Political bombs and games every where, they talk but don't expect them to walk. Only a few cares about their people and they will only talk silently and lost their voice over time. Super complex and matrix so there are chances that people an work around silos and still make a good and elegant living. Senior management are managers but not leaders, so they control, dictate with no empowerment. If you like to conform then it's the company that you shall consider.

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.

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.
