Pluspunten

*Reputation of the company name for your CV *Can find smart people *Good cafeteria in Zurich HQ *The work itself can be interesting

Minpunten

*Male/Swiss oriented culture for promotion, salary determination, bonus and perks *Huge difference on access to benefits depending on direct supervisor's decision *Striking inequality of salary, bonus and promotion opportunities between males and females *Culture of "maintain the status quo" and "no-complaints policy" (I have seen several people get fired for rising concerns or disagreement with the established management)

Great culture, people are helpful

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.
