Pros

1. Benefits 2. Paid on time 3. A (really ) small smattering of the employees are friendly and helpful

Cons

This place is toxic. AGCS in US is primarily made up of ex FFIC employees who at best can be described as incompetent. I mean it needs special skills to be merged with a firm that’s 1/10th of what you were at your peak. AGCS Munich and London is comprised of “management” who only need the next scapegoat.

Pros

This operating entity of Allianz says it is attempting a major culture shift. Top leadership wants to focus on customer centricity, innovation & technical competence, diversity and employee well being. 401k is generous, and vested after 3 years. Vacation time is generous. Relocation to global positions is encouraged.

Cons

Competence of execution is significantly lacking in technology and UW areas. Fear rules; longterm employees have survived by not asking clarifying questions. Leadership has not yet acknowledged the 'iron triangle' of Speed, Cost, and Quality; they do not seem to understand they only get to pick two. Employees are often jaded or frightened. Layoffs of what are believed to be overpaid employees in the western US are ongoing, but positions remain open for months in the mid West and Eastern states.

Pros

Bonus and benefits fairly standard. Not much more to say as this was the worst work experience of my 25+ year career.

Cons

Zero technology. No underwriting support staff.. a few heavily overworked policy issuers at a remote location. Thug management all well known to each other and self protecting ( some poorly educated ). See Fireman's Fund reviews for similar comments re AGCS. Not trustworthy..be careful what you share with whom especially your manager. Marketing department is 100% waste foisted on the backs of production underwriters.
