Pros

Excellent benefits and exceptional 401k. Flexible work environment. Truly own the way your work! A leader in saving energy. Truly a go green firm.

Cons

Swiss Re is suppose to be a leader in the industry, but they certainly don't show it. Senior leadership says to "own your career" but in reality they pick who they choose to advance. There is no career opportunity for millennials. HR is awful! They know nothing about benefits.
