Pros

There are few reasons to work at AIG if you do quantitative work. The best reason I can think of to work there is the paid time-off (starts at 24 days) and some other rare benefits like Paternity leave. Compensation of fair for non-IB banking hours.

Cons

Raises and promotions are not based on actual quality and quantity of work done throughout the year. Positions are filled by friends and relatives (literally!). Cronyism is rampant, and I have seen many bosses at all levels hold back excellent employees because of their own insecurities. Mismanaged employees and wasted effort everywhere. Constant fear of layoffs, with no real way to identify underperformers (other than very subjective manager reviews). Avoid at all costs.

Pros

Ability to work from home which makes office setup tolerable. Rewarded for not rocking the boat or sticking head out. If you keep your head down and don't expect a raise, they'll keep you.

Cons

Viciously political culture, inept managers, everyone for him or herself. Culture of non-compliance. Company is in a downward spiral. There is zero employee morale.

Pros

The people at the company for the most part were great to work with

Cons

The negatives at this company FAR, FAR outweighed the positives. No IT support, Hunger Games yearly review structure-groups of managers sitting in a room or on the phone for as much as 7 hours trying to make employees at a certain salary grade fit into a bell curve ranking from 1-5. No bell curve no one leaves the room or the call.
