Pros

Not clear given the Wall St meltdown. Would have said previously job security, but it is all up for grabs now.

Cons

Entrenched top down management style; managers are expected spend all day looking at exception reports and yelling at their staff instead of modeling and coaching good claims handling. This stuff is straight out of the 70's. They need to get up to speed.

Pros

A big company with various opportunities.The company used to be a very safe and secure place for work, though its not anymore true but still there are some smart people in the company.I have seen lot of people sticking around with the company for more than 15-20 years.

Cons

The compensation and benefits are not very generous, there is literally no bonus for people below managerial ranks and growth with in the organization is very limited. A lot depends on the department and manger ,for whom you are working.The company is very old traditioned in terms of telecommuting or flexi hours, there is literally no concept of work from home.

Pros

AIG is a large company with many opportunities. Getting your foot in the door is a good start to understanding the corporate environment and culture of the company. Departments are actually typically small with limited room for advancement but moving to other business units presents a much larger set of opportunities or you can use your experience for an external move.

Cons

Although AIG is large, the separate operating companies fail to take advantage of the company's size and scale with many profit centers working in a siloed environment and each reinventing similar business processes and technology improvements. Frustrating knowing that other units have access to things (tools, processes, policies) we don't
