Pros

Hard working environment with very intelligent people. Great place to get started in the insurance industry. Management is very lenient about time off as long as you get the job done.

Cons

They do not pay well right out of college until you "put your time in." They are not very open about opportunities outside of your current environment and will certainly not hold you hand through the navigation process at this company. You either sink or swim which can be a great sense of accomplishment if that is your personality. If that is not your personality then do not come and work at this company.

Pros

There are many opportunities to experience many different situations and environments. You can really get a lot of variety of experience on the job if you look for it. Since there is so many products and businesses here, you often have the opportunity to work with people normally not in your field of interest. There is alot of good supporting departments such as research and other helpful internal departments to obain expert advise.

Cons

It is often a stressful environment. You usually face sink or swim situations. There is not a lot of mentoring. It is sometimes too big to make real relationships.

Pros

Ed Liddy's "Tell it as it is" management style is motivational, transparent and refreshing. The people of AIG are hard working, entrepreneurial and customer focused. I only wish the media and politicians with their own agendas would get their facts straight before attacking this great company for rating or political gains.

Cons

Systems and infrastructures needs improvement. elevators are too slow. Bonus opportunities for rank and file are not competitive against competitors.
