Pluspunten

The company offers great benefits, professional training and opportunities to work with international teams and with very smart people overall. Very good external image and good brand for your CV. Flexible working hours.

Minpunten

Despite the many Diversity & Inclusion efforts, the company in Zurich is a Swiss boys' club and who does not fit this description has substantial less opportunities for promotion and salary increase. The company recently published an study that measured internal bias in the organization and the #1 bias was against women, well above race, place of origin and sexual orientation. Interestingly enough, women in leadership positions demonstrated more negative bias against other women than men.

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.
