Pros

- Lots of room for growth and movement, at least in IT - Thinking outside the box is encouraged and you are given room to research and implement solutions that make sense - Flexible hours and WFH - Managers listen to concerns - Collaboration is fostered and encouraged - Good culture, company feels like it really cares about its employees - Have only had positive experiences with coworkers - Free lunch (if you work in the office), gym compensation, competitive benefits

Cons

- Lots of meetings which can sometimes make getting work done difficult - Constant push for change, even when it's not needed. "Change for the sake of change" - Similar to last point, but feels like the company is always pushing for the employee to take on objectives for personal development. This could be considered a pro to some people, but others may be happy with where they are at and want to move at their own pace. - High turnover rate in recent months

Pros

Deep specialist insurance knowledge with a pragmatic approach to growth. Autonomy to deliver the how in alignment to the group why. Great benefits and increasingly diverse employee base that is passionate about change.

Cons

The generous autonomy can cause conflicting priorities.

Pros

-positive, progressive culture; a sense that executives and upper management truly care about employees' wellbeing and remaining transparent about company performance. Strong benefits and perks. -because it's a relatively smaller carrier, perhaps more open than others to hire those without experience for entry-level roles; Beazley can be an excellent company to begin your career in insurance. -friendly, professional colleagues and a sincere effort to develop relationships and bring people together.

Cons

-salaries can be on the lower side of industry standards, and despite lower-level employees being encouraged to work extra hours to keep up with heavy workloads, this extra compensation can be overlooked when employees earn a promotion. -Company communication can be overbearingly encouraging of a culture that can be experienced quite differently across teams and departments; upper management not always aware or in touch with operations' teams systems and their problems. -growing pains deriving from upper management pushing underwriters to expand business at a furious pace, while being incredibly stringent with offering additional support services headcount to match. Operations staff seem to be viewed as expendable assets that can be continuously replaced, leading to high turnover. There is a huge project to automate/streamline processes but until those goals are accomplished, there should be more people on the front lines to facilitate this ambitious growth.
