Pros

Has lots of employee benefits to make up for the poor pay compared to other employers

Cons

Aviva have an absolute refusal to adopt home working for IT personnel full time, even if your teams based all over the world/country The pay is completely sub-par and this is achieved by giving you the least paying job title in the industry compared to what you actually do Aviva uses a 50/50 hybrid policy and if you deviate, or you are not liked, they use it as a means to bully staff People with legitimate reasons to work from home full time have to have a crippling disability or illness with doctors notes to make it possible Any request for home working is denied on the contract level, it is only possible for Sales people
