Pros

People at a more junior level are very friendly Opportunities to travel

Cons

Senior management are incredibly micro-managing and pass on any stress down the chain instead of taking responsibility for decisions Everything is very much based on who rates you, it creates quite a gossipy culture There is a big blame culture and huge amounts of pressure are put on more junior staff No real exciting long term vision Failure to promote people or reward them properly Paris HQ feels very distant

Pros

The executive team have the right intent and roll out initiatives with the aim of support

Cons

Locally people are worked to mental breakdown, no support is available, resources are scarce, seniors do not help, seniors get praise from few large cases so they can valiantly save the day, if you work at AXA there are still only a minute amount of people willing to help, it’s likely if you are not extremely experienced you will drown under pressure. There was a big problem with work related stress yet it was never addressed. The systems only get more and more complex, technology is horrendous, it felt like daily torture to survive at AXA. Survey scores reflect this view.
