Pros

Good paying company, with decent work life balance. In some specific product lines there is a lot you can learn. There is a lot you can learn from an international management perspective due to AIG's matrix structure.

Cons

Very slow moving company in terms of decision making. Completely not conducive for young employees. The org structure is archaic, and simply not conducive to innovation, rapid responses to market changes - too many approvals required, very archaic IT department etc.

Pros

High Pay, but lost my job. The influx of tarp money has changed the way we do business,

Cons

Tarp money, no big bonus anymore. The government is now a partner, in fact owns 80 % of us. Having big government breathing down our backs makes it difficult to make informed decisions.

Pros

I think that they are flexible in terms of allowing individuals to balance their family lives and work. They are very far with their compensation and various other benefits. They are the biggest insurance company in the world - this means that as an employee you get great exposure to the insurance industry and your knowledge of the insurance business expands because of the vast business lines you're exposed to.

Cons

The only downside is that with the recent reports on AIG's performance - it's quite embarrasing because the first thing people remember is that we've made the largest loss in a quater (in the word's history)!
