Pros

Work from home, food in cafetaria

Cons

Culture is becoming very aggressive, and senior employees are leaving the company now. I left a great job to join Swiss Re, a very very bad decision that I repent each day. Your survival depends upon the person you are supporting from Bangalore. Unfortunately, I support a stubborn person, who has complicated everything, while my colleagues have very friendly and helpful counterparts, and enjoy working. I was placed with a very non-cooperative colleague, in a Division which no one wanted to be a part of and a counterpart who is difficult. Basically, I was dealt a hard hand, and was expected to outperform, since my salary is supposedly high. The systems in this company are a hot mess, there are 100s of complicated systems, of which even the seniors in my team aren't aware. It is very very easy to make errors and goof-up when you work here.
