Pros

The old AIG had great pay, great benefits, room for advancement, management team was wonderful to work with.

Cons

AIG stands for American International Group. Sending the majority of jobs overseas it's becoming more International then American. No pay raises, bonuses are determined by AIG so you may or may not get one, production standards are unrealistic in every department, most jobs in the states will be sent overseas, low pay by industry standards.

Pros

I happened to work with a group of very nice people. My initial manager was absolutely awesome and she rewarded for hard work both monetarily and professionally. But due to reorg, I ended up reporting to a different manager who was keeping me in a dark about everything, making me do all the work and taking all the credit. It really depends who you end up working with that will make a huge difference.

Cons

Very political place. If the head of comp doesn't like you, it doesn't matter how well you do, all your career advancements will be blocked. There is no comp system so everything is done via spreadsheets. Data is horrible, which adds to the complexity. Be prepared to work many hours and get a crappy pay. Better off working for investment banks....at least you get paid well.

Pros

Good Work/Life Balance: Good Time Off

Cons

Lots of quiet large lay offs; constantly changing executive management plans; executives constantly providing promotional opportunities for themselves; lack of promotional opportunities or opportunities to move around the company laterally; lots of dead end departmental positions; executive management has no interest in knowing the real talent within all levels of the company and making sure they are in the right position rather than just performing lay offs; good salaries going in but lack of performance based increases (lots of "you performed exceptionally well this year but no one, but the executives, are getting raises this year".
