Strategic Changes: One Too Many

Anonymous employee

Pros

The work environment in the Des Moines office was very productive and supportive; not sure how things changed after the company was bought by Athene.

Cons

Aviva Investors made too many strategic changes every year -- driven by the head office in London. Hopefully, this is no longer a nagging issue.

A Two-Month Intern Perspective

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Friendly environment, very supportive, & gave interesting work to me despite being an intern. Really enjoyed going to work and grew close to the team in just a few months.

Cons

Some of the work got monotonous and the office space was not the best environment to work in. Team was great, but did sometimes take the option to work from home.
