Pros

The ONLY good thing about this company is the 401k benefits, which is 6% match + 3% on top. If that's enough for you to trade your self esteem and dignity for the cronyism and nepotism, then go for it, but please read on.

Cons

AIG has some of the worse leadership I've ever seen. Cronyism and nepotism equates to job security. If you are one of the few smart ones, they will stack you under one of the idiots in their 'club', might be tolerable at first, but give it a year or two, itll slowly eat your soul. They also like to keep people busy by doing things the hard inefficient way instead of investing in the right tools and systems. This is the most fractured and dysfunctional organizations you'll ever experience. Oh and you can forget about a raise. Lastly, this has one of the worst corporate cultures I've seen in decades of working. The economy is humming and every other company is making record profits, AIG is the only ones losing $6.6 billion. The only thing they cover is their own as.....

Pros

AIG pays well. Pretty good benefits package & bonus structure.

Cons

The work is wild at AIG! Also, there are ALOT of people at AIG so, everybody has to weigh in on everything you do...keeping you bottlenecked in your work flow. AIG is not the place for a brand new, entry level adjuster breaking into the commercial space and they pretty much only hire experienced people HOWEVER, it does not matter-management will not trust your experience therefore, there is little to no autonomy! You will find yourself touching the same thing 3 or 4 times because your always waiting on permission or someone else's opinion on something, etc. You got to get permission to send for conflict check, got to get an opinion to answer a demand, a tender, an ROR ltr. .. they pounce on defense counsel's hourly rate to be cheap with them which makes them work w/less efficiency...dragging the claim out so they can get their billable hours. You will work your fingers to the bone for that good pay & you will be frustrated and exhausted, ALL THE TIME!...The environment is pretty stuffy w/a very high stress level, (especially with long time AIG employees who definitely drink the "kool-aid" and think they are hot stuff). They will keep you in dumb meetings on your claims all the time presenting your claims with everyone scared to make a decision plus, they never want to pay the claims, they are cheap as hell. They will make you have to scramble at a mediation to get more money even though you told them what you needed when they forced you to present the same claim to 3 different people before the mediation date. To me, management are glorified overseers who still handles the claim...they just tell you what to do or, they come behind you and second guess everything. And, they are trying to enforce 3 days in-office a week (which is hell for ATL traffic) plus, it's crowded on the elevator (which seems to get stuck more often than what I am comfortable with) and trying to find a desk when everyone decides to come in at the same time. It's a good temporary move....if you need the advanced commercial experience and/or want to reset your pay...stay for 1-2 yrs then, go somewhere else with work from home and a little more professional autonomy.
