Vantaggi
There are various opportunities to grow from within the business as they prefer to hire internally for promotions or other roles if they can, however the company is full of life timers who only know zurich and therefore opportunities for progression might not come as often, and also the culture is very cliquey and the life timers are very disconnected from how an office environment should be these days, they don't care to help the newbies and they can get away with all sorts of behaviour. One pro is they are relatively flexible with working hours, personal commitments, etc. Benefits are good (but pay is shocking)
Svantaggi
In the branch where I was Training and induction was lacking, there is none. The little training tht happens is just a ticking box exercise and not good, London however does very good training sessions. Favouritism Cliquey Toxic environment Shocking systems and duplication Good benefits but very low pay with little opportunity to increase it unless you are considering to leave. Everybody does things their own way, but many of those are not great ways Management can be very toxic Full of lifers that have been at zurich 30 years and get away with bad behaviours, unsupportiveness, they are unfriendly and unapproachable. The fact loads of management are also lifers that don't have managerial experience from another companies doesn't help. None of these things are going to change in the short to medium term, which means people (other than the lifers) keep leaving the company. I only recommend this company to have it in your CV and move onto something better afterwards.
