Pros

Big Brand name in the insurance industry Very stable company CEO is a veteran in the industry and comes from a family of insurance tycoons Lot of opportunity to modernize in the technology world Director and above get decent pay with Base Pay, Bonus and Stocks.

Cons

Information Technology overall and the Information Security Team overall is very very resource crunched. There seems to be no care from Executive Management about the lack of Work Life Balance and employee burnout. No special care event was organized by the company during the pandemic. Rather employees are forced to return to office as soon as the numbers go down a little. Everyone is burnt out. Senior Management keeps talking about work life balance and culture in town halls, while nothing changes in day to day life. Clocking 50+ hours (avg 55 to 60 hours a week) is the norm. CEO doesn't seem to understand Technology or the importance of it, as is also evident from a recent conference speak. Chubb is not a preferred destination for niche technology talent, and the company is doing nothing to change that perception

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.
