Pros

Swiss Re is not just a reinsurer but a big think tank with a lot of knowledge, strong employee commitment and identification. With the best canteen and hospitality service ==> state of the art and the biggest factor of reputation. Makes the difference!

Cons

To much focused on processes, on productivity topics. Driven by costs rather client needs.

Pros

Good salary and benefits. Not a stressful environment. Relatively safe in this economic environment.

Cons

Not particularly dynamic. Quite set in it's ways. Progression can be very slow. No correlation whatsoever between seniority and competence. Prolific use of buzzwords with no real content; meetings are almost always hot air with no substance.
