Pros

Can't think of any, but this new Chubb is more like ACE, not the old Chubb.

Cons

Health plan not as good as other employers. 401k matching only $0.50 on the dollar and the matching not given until the end of the year. Some managers are micro managers and need to learn how to build teams not tear them apart. Raises and bonuses are not very competitive.

Pros

Business side is smart and is superb at their product

Cons

The IT organization struggles with structural challenges that impact efficiency. The offshore-heavy model in India means US-based employees regularly work early hours to stay aligned, which is unsustainable long-term. The workforce is heavily weighted toward a high-headcount service model rather than investing in strong engineering talent — you need fewer, better engineers, not more bodies. Central tech functions are attempting to build platforms, but without a clear shared understanding of what a platform actually means, these initiatives remain incomplete. The result is heavy manual workarounds propping up half-finished solutions. Strategic direction shifts frequently, and ongoing layoff announcements make it difficult to plan or build momentum.
