Pros

Decent work/life balance and great PTO policy

Cons

Loyalty and experience are not rewarded at all. Few learning resources and opportunities for career growth. Favoritism is the worst I've ever seen. Promotions are not given based on experience, ability, or seniority but rather personal relationships with management. In my unit, two people with less experience were promoted based on personal friendships with management. Management hires friends and then promotes them, creating a very exclusive environment. Very little guidance or support in day to day and longer term goals for division. Ability, skill, and experience are not the qualities that factor into promotions or raises. Raises are on average under 2% which is completely unacceptable and unsustainable for employees. Pay is far below industry average, even in higher cost of living areas.

Pros

Global reach, brand name/reputation, nice technology equipment and solid networking. Opportunity for internal mobility. Good 401k match.

Cons

Incredibly slow systems and stifling bureaucracy. Culture is overall relaxed but not very hospitable, which is likely both a symptom and cause of a high-turnover environment. Raises are well below inflation. Moral does not seem considerably high and the bureaucratic nature of work hinders development. All of these factors combined negatively impact motivation. Very little open discussion about marketplace trends and tedious processes make the role feel very administrative despite being more analytical at other firms who have improved their systems. The firm has done a great job of diversifying across product lines and geographies, but a very poor job of talent retention and upgrading systems, which are the long-term tailwinds that’ll put Chubb at the forefront of the industry.
