Vantaggi

Work/Life balance is decent. Working in the Gherkin!!!

Svantaggi

- Pay is stagnant once you join unless you get promotion, which is very difficult to achieve in London. - Most of the senior jobs are Zurich centrified. - Management are trying to push for employee's to come back to the office in London. If I am the only one in my team based in London what exactly is the point of me spending 3 hours travelling every day and spending £20 to sit on calls I could just as easily have done at home?! - Real toxic atmosphere, particularly within projects area. Management team in Zurich have no human touch, particularly towards those based outside in Zurich, but then try to tick the correct HR boxes by sending emails about mental well being. - Clear move from London to low cost locations

Great culture, people are helpful

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

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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.
