Pros

At one time Chubb offered not just a pension plan but profit sharing and stock options for all. Take care of your people first and they will take care of you. One of the reasons people stayed on for a very long time and made Chubb an outstanding company.

Cons

That all changed and not just recently. They took away profit sharing so the higher ups can get a bigger piece of the pie. Stock options taken away because it was a good idea just to give that option to execs. Now the pension is going or gone not to mention the constant micro management.

Pros

Working in the Medibank building was nice

Cons

Absolute toxic company that do things like book a national conference interstate, communicate this to staff then cancel it weeks prior because a more senior manager won’t sign it off Management speak to you like children, are belittling, hostile and passive aggressive Communication from managers is usually done over email rather than in person The amount of unhappy people in this suffocating environment is astounding- people simply do not smile. If you share a laugh with colleagues you get angry stares from others Leaving work on time is frowned upon. The culture here is very old school- most people work till 7pm at least. Work life balance? Forget it. Worst staff turn over I’ve ever seen

Pros

Good work life balance. Reasonable pension & other benefit options. Free monthly fry up brekkie!

Cons

No opportunities for advancement if you are not an UW. Local managers not necessarily following correct procedures then backed by senior managers. Incessant focus on the here and now with no strategic direction. The same things are said every year about changes to make but then they are not achieved. Pointless annual appraisal system that is a waste of everyone's time. Being told the company is doing great 11 months of every year but in the 12th month at pay review time there is never any money - bonuses particularly bad with no structure at all as to how they are calculated. Continual carping about expenses - but managers don't walk the walk - just talk the talk. They are unwilling to pay enough to properly replace experienced people who leave resulting in under-qualified staff under-performing.
