Pros

One of the biggest benefits of working for Beazley, that I have found personally, is that they truly recognize the individual. We are not just a number or a robot, but a personal with real-life goals, contributions to make to the company, and also individuals who have lives outside of work. Another benefit is that there is always someone here who is willing to step up and help when there is a task you may be struggling with- it is a VERY collaborative environment.

Cons

Training is not always effective.

Hapless Management and Laughable "Vision"

Anonymous employee

Pros

Free lunches (up to $10 per day) when in the office, though the company says this is in lieu of being paid more.

Cons

Beazley has a failing and incompetent management that thinks using vague "business" cliches makes them thought leaders or visionaries, but they lack the substance, knowledge, and actual ability to follow through. Flat structure no longer exists. Managers will stalk your calendar to see who you are talking to and why, then chastise you for "going outside of the management chain." Career advancement at Beazley is nonexistent. The same people who blackmailed the Board into getting promotions are now walking around telling people career advancement is not important.

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I am sorry your experience of Beazley hasn't been a positive one and I would be keen to discuss this with you further. I can categorically confirm that the lunch benefit is just that, a benefit, and not something that the company do in lieu of paying employees more, but again, I am happy to discuss this with you in more detail. We're always striving to improve and your feedback will be invaluable. Feel free to contact me at akil.kapasi@beazley.com Thanks, Akil Kapasi

Failing Management and Toxic Culture

Pros

Middle of the road compensation.

Cons

Years of promoting "yes men" and "yes women" and rewarding those who sabotaged others to get ahead have finally caught up to Beazley. Executive Committee on down to middle management, there is panic about falling profits and ballooning costs. Because they do not have the skill to turn things around, they are now creating narratives, changing titles, and "restructuring", leaving all the problems in place. The culture is toxic. People only mock management and executive as clueless.
