Pros

they will hire anyone for this gig. if you dont care aout people and have no self respect you will love it here in the next few months as all the big producers leave you might get some scarps Valic is still not as bad and unethical as axa - your arch rival and the scum of the earth

Cons

you are an annuity sales person sitting in school cafeterias and basements to annoy teachers and janitors into contributing for their own retirements - they don't care

Pros

The Lexington brand in the wholesale space Educational resources Establishment in the marketplace as a "market leader"

Cons

4 days RTO is drying up the recruiting pool and pushing people (especially women) away Medical/dental Benefits are expensive compared to competitors No delegation to unit heads to make many decisions - everything has to go through many layers of approval, sometimes all the way up to the CEO, when they are approval items that should stay with the competent unit heads.

Pros

Benefits are in line with competitors. If you make it to a good division, there is an opportunity to learn and gain new skills. There are still some good people.

Cons

Salaries have been known to be less than competitors. Total pay package weighted heavily based on performance bonus which can fluctuate depending on the company's performance and your own performance. Executive pay and stock buyback is limiting the capital that could be invested in the company and it's employees. Voluntary early retirement program took everyone by surprise. The impact is unknown but will be impacting parts of underwriting immensely. This is the beginning to AIG Next cost cutting initiative. Be prepared to do more and work longer hours to cover for AIG's mismanagement of staffing. Lack of career progression or career coaching. Most managers are not equipped to help their staff grow. Training is hard to come by. You will need to rely on colleagues. Management has very little involvement with training and there is little material available. Issues with attracting experienced individuals and some have been quick to burnout. Staffing has and continues to be an issue. No incentive to stay long term.
