I have been working at Axa for about 10 years.

Pros

Lots of vacation time, work from home allowed as well. Steady bonus, it varies from 10% of your salary and goes up depending on your level.

Cons

Management doesn't give recognition to their employees. It doesn't matter how hard you work, same people get excellent rating. There is a lot of favoritism in my department. The only reward for a job well done is more work.

Rewarding experience until the layoffs and outsourcing of jobs to India began

Business Outlook

Pros

In IT, good pay and bonus structure. Creative work was well rewarded. Middle management was competent, enthusiastic and supportive.

Cons

Senior management was, and apparently still is, hell bent on outsourcing to India and ultimately drained this company of all of it talent - all the in the name of short term stock increases. Annuity product offerings were a misguided failure and ultimately all of this combined so that today the stock price they so desperately wanted to influence is a total flop.
