Office timings Work life balance Compensation (Bonus) Other monetary/educational benefits (education/course reimbursement) Client service oriented

Cons

Does not have a very 'Open door policy' to share thoughts Does not encourage out of the box thinking (more inclined to 'by the book' procedures) Number of years (experience) plays a more important role than capabilities/skills

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.

Pros

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

Cons

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.
