      I had a great boss and a very autonomous role which made me feel valued

      Pros

      I was well paid and I loved working in the Gherkin! My role was varied and my colleagues were supportive and friendly.

      Cons

      My department was slowly eroding as they relocated positions to Folkestone - this was not great for staff morale. I felt like I had no opportunities to progress in my career at a technical level whilst remaining in London and the only way up was into management.

      Good company, some people have an old Swiss-style management

      Pros

      Many opportunities available, very wealthy company. Had some fantastic bosses. Many opportunities for training available. Medium size make it easy to get to know many people in the company. Love the lunch culture at HQ -- great cafeteria food, plus fantastic chance for internal networking.

      Cons

      Some departments are run by old-style Swiss management, which can be a little chauvinistic. Some long-time employees have trouble accepting change -- and Swiss Re has undergone dramatic change in the past 10 years.

      Pros

      Compensation and benefits are competitive. Company is paternalistic towards employees.

      Cons

      Somewhat bureacratic - to be expected in a large company.
