A big Company with Small Company Feel (in a good way!)

Senior project manager

Business Outlook

Pros

I joined AXA 2 years ago initially as a contractor and it felt like "home " the minute I walked in the door. The people are friendly the work is enjoyable and the targets and expectations are realistic. It is a big company but the feeling of pulling together and intimacy and approachability of senior staff makes it a great place to work. In addition the Bristol office is a fantastic environment with a brilliant culture.

Cons

None really, other than within certain parts of the organisation I certain reticence to use technology to its full potential I've never seen so many people using writing pads, and the expectation to travel to face to face meetings was unexpected. This is changing now

Business Outlook

Pros

An employer that takes it's time to invest in you, that cares about your physical and mental wellbeing. A great place to work, where you are treated like an adult and respected.

Cons

The salary isn't perhaps as competitive as other companies when considering the responsibilities at my level.
