Pros

Indian holidays is the best positive aspect about Swissre.

Cons

High level politics, Very tough for senior level employees to get promotions as management is always looking to fire them. Work from home option is used as a weapon to ensure that employees work a lot as employee work load is always huge.

Pros

1. 12% 401k match 2. Amazing co workers in the trenches but this is rapidly changing as people look for the exits.

Cons

1. Management - the new management team has a maximum personal bonus / profit only mindset. Cost cutting reigns. 2. Constant layoffs. No job is safe. 3. Company has offshored many jobs to India and is in a race to move key underwritering, engineering, claims functions to India as well. Overall, it feels more like a private equity gut job than a publicly traded company.
