Pros

+ Good pay + Flexible lunch hours + Market leader

Cons

- Horrible toxic culture - Bosses are vulgar and regularly berate others or use vulgarities. - Incessant drinking culture for bosses which leaves piles of work for others. - Extreme lack of empathy or welfare for employees. Very regimental and authoritative management. - High office politics and internal conflict even between teams within departments. More of ACE culture than Chubb. - Terrible bonus. <1 month. Terrible benefits. - Please avoid at all costs even if you join Regional or Local teams. This is a toxic place.

Pros

Global reach, brand name/reputation, nice technology equipment and solid networking. Opportunity for internal mobility. Good 401k match.

Cons

Incredibly slow systems and stifling bureaucracy. Culture is overall relaxed but not very hospitable, which is likely both a symptom and cause of a high-turnover environment. Raises are well below inflation. Moral does not seem considerably high and the bureaucratic nature of work hinders development. All of these factors combined negatively impact motivation. Very little open discussion about marketplace trends and tedious processes make the role feel very administrative despite being more analytical at other firms who have improved their systems. The firm has done a great job of diversifying across product lines and geographies, but a very poor job of talent retention and upgrading systems, which are the long-term tailwinds that’ll put Chubb at the forefront of the industry.
