      Swiss Re - Worst Place to work

      Pros

      Good if you want an average income without doing any work or have no brains so wont get in anywhere else like the case with their HR team.

      Cons

      Interview process - 6-8 months if you are lucky, not because they have detailed rounds but because the recruitment team is full of idiots who cannot understand what is needed and are too lazy to close. Only way you can be hired is if the interviewers or you are following up daily. role discussed during interview and work you do do not match Politics Politics Politics No Business Ethics or Professionalism

      Not an employee friendly company. Please do not be fooled by fake/paid positive ratings as I was.

      Pros

      Actually none! All the cons. for instance, work from home, incentives are actually held in employee's opposition at later stages during the employment period. If SR provision work from home, employee's absence from the office would be counted as "0" working hours in the official attendance which, at the end of a term, turn against the employees. Only if an employee is based at the European or American office, employee benefits are considerable else, others are treated badly. I would not recommend working in or with this company to anybody.

      Cons

      1) Salary, in general, is lower than the market price. The management does not appreciate work quality but how well an employee fits into the "office politics". 2) Incentives are actually not worthy of any consideration. Employees get nothing much. 3) Salaries for the managers, who behaves unreasonably with the employees, is quite high while the employees who really work get peanuts. 4) Office politics is unacceptably high. 5) 24X7 work mode! Even on Saturdays, I had to take meetings, leaving my family duties. Still, there was no appreciation for such diligence. 6) HR and managers are very unreasonable to the employees at times.
