Pros

Some very good people at company

Cons

Poor Management - Poor decision making and a lack of guidance has led to a mismatch in aligned goals across the company - No probation periods. This has led to some very poor recruits being taken on by the company - Senior Management think far too much about themselves to care about the other 95% of the company. This has led to severely understaffed teams and extremely poor turnarounds when signing off on new members of staff - Lack of opportunities for progression due to lack of senior positions and extremely poor at retaining talent - When compared to our competitors AIG do not offer many perks to there employees considering the size and profitability of the company. - No regular pay rises and a very poor bonus structure

Pros

If you work in customer service they provide a lot of team activities, provide lunches, breakfast and dinner on different occasions. The benefits are pretty good, starting on day one of hire.

Cons

If you are looking to build a long lasting career this is not the place. They have frequent layoffs, at least once a year. It is a very silo based company so if you know the right people you can make it through years of layoffs regardless of your qualifications. You will only receive a pay increase if you move up in job level.

Toxic Environment

Pros

Not very many unless you are lucky and have a good boss. You will have nice colleagues but they often leave.

Cons

Most toxic culture I have ever seen. Experienced bullying that caused anxiety everyday, saw my friend experience racism and bullying, discrimination based on disabilities...It is chaos so there is no accountability for the bullies bad behavior. A lot of the people at the top get away with whatever they can and take advantage of the responsibile ones at the bottom who do all the work. Many so-called leaders are narcissistic and control others by demeaning them in order to hide the fact they themselves are incompetent. Saw my friend abused by her boss for taking a day off to go to a family funeral...then fired. I got punished for taking half a day off because I was sick. Another former employee has PTSD from this place. Constant stress will ruin you. No loyalty to people only to money. Former CEO laid off cafeteria workers making less than ten dollars an hour to "lower costs" while he got millions in bonuses. Corrupt organization with complete lack of processes or structure. Bosses told people they didn't have to worry about losing their jobs, then fired them within two weeks. Totally dysfunctional... My boss used sexually harrasing insults against me in a meeting and other employee let it go like it's ok. There's no accountability here only egotism and greed. People are scared of losing whatever they have so they treat others like enemies. Or else there are cliques like in high school or middle school...backstabbing environment. Some people do care but they end up getting taken advantage of, try to do too much to fix the problems. Problems are still too big for anyone to fix. The whole place should be closed. It's all one big lie. They try to appear like a good organization but they are not. Don't be fooled.
