Pros

The benefits package is good. If you are in technology, you are going to be further behind coming here. There is a lot of talk and hiring to move forward, but your project will be cut and you end up supporting old neglected applications.

Cons

Very outdated technology in most groups. There is a very old club culture and constantly changing top nothing really moves past planning into action.

AIG needs to care about its employees.

Pros

1. The flexible working hours and the option to work from home for one to two days a week is great. 2. Initial pay when hired. 3. 401k and benefits are good.

Cons

1. No raise or promotion for years, even though the cost of living keeps increasing. The only way to get a promotion at AIG is to transfer to another team. Management don't care about the high turnover rate and I was shocked as I came from a tech company. When you tell your manager you have a job offer, at a tech company your manager will most probably ask why you are leaving or even provide a retain-offer. Here at AIG, your manager will ask:"Ok, so when is your last day?" 2. When I go to a service unit in AIG (HR, IT, etc), I kind of fill I am in DMV. People keep talking to colleagues without noticing you or talking to you like you are an idiot. The low efficiency is everywhere. Image it takes over a month to get a replacement microwave or a hot water fountain that breaks again in two weeks! You keep hearing from senior people in the company say that "yeah, this is AIG", which makes me feel really bad because obviously people here have gotten used to the government-style low efficiency at AIG. 3. Senior management care about the board, wall street, their own bonuses, but not the future of the company, or the employees. Replacing the CEO or any senior management without changing the way AIG does its business will not save AIG. Underwrting strategy is just one of the examples. A changing industry environment (soft market to hard market or the other way around) will only make it worse, or just cover up the problems that will emerge again in the future.
