Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

Not very diverse, the few minorities there have to act subservient. If you speak your mind then you are punished. The minorities are highly micromanaged and treated like children. This company is run on seniority and not experience so if you have several years of experience and an advanced degree, that experience is ignored for people who have been doing the job the same way for 30 years. Definitely run by the "good ole boys".

Pros

We've come through a few tough years which caused some of us to question and even sometimes have doubts about our company. The 2019 positive operating results were encouraging, lifted morale and dispelled those doubts. But the game-changer is the understanding and commitment from our CEO to all employees during the pandemic crisis. We haven't missed a beat thanks to our people and technology. While the lives and livelihoods of so many have been seriously impacted, the solidity of FM Global means we can remain strong for our families.

Cons

None that would be meaningful in the context of what we're living through, and the great things our CEO and company are doing.
