Pros

Living the values - over all the whole company lives the defined values (unless you are unfortunate to endup under some flawed leadership team) Good work life balance Plenty of learning opportunities. Their LWS is an amazing programme Great exposure. I am what I am today thanks to what I learnt in this company

Cons

Found at times that the removal of a "bad" member in the organisation does not happen on time. Zero tolerance to bad attitude and behaviour must should happen timely. Allowing mid and senior managers who join Swiss Re to bring in their culture (most of the times they shocked me) With the growing size of Bangalore office you can easily be lost

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.
