AIG reviews

My major problem was my commute. Although AIG is a global company with offices near my home, I was not able to utilize the facility so I had to trek 85miles each day by train or car to get to the office. After 2 years of this, I was burnt out and I took a paycut to work closer to home with another company. AIG said they'd allow me to work from this closer location but it never panned out. I lost the wind in my sails for AIG once I was denied the opportunity to simplify my commute. I felt their concern for me was low and I was worth more than what they were doing for me.

Size of company is burdensome - changes are at a pre-global warming glacial pace. Not progressive with respect to employee time flexibility options. You are more likely to get by based on who likes you than on merit, and you really do need to rely on such networks to get anything accomplished. Inconsistent systems, processes, and standards from a culture that claims to foster an "entrepreneurial" spirit - more likely a lack of urgency to properly integrate and leverage dozens of acquisitions over the years. Employees rarely feel like valued members of the company; as a result, too many are there because they've been there for years and are just biding their time to collect a pension.
