Pros

In the past this company was highly regarded. Unfortunately the negatives are outweighing the positives.

Cons

Changes in recent years have contributed to the long list of cons. Promotions for employees with little to no experience, and no promotion opportunities for the people at the bottom. Overworked employees are now working even more due to the decisions of the company and the inability to replace people who have left. “Inclusive” culture they are striving for has been unsuccessful. It used to be impossible to get fired, but now personal and religious beliefs are not taken into account, and not enough to keep a job here. The premature decision to fire dedicated employees rather than offering the possibility of covid testing or mask wearing in an office (like the federal mandate suggested before it was blocked) is extremely unfortunate. Many employees were also forced into early retirement by December only to find out that most of the company is still working from home until at least March. There are many companies that care about their employees, but lately FM Global doesn’t seem to be one of them.

Pros

Benefits are ok.. I have no complaints with the staff and management at the campus I worked. Work load is manageable.

Cons

As others have stated this company has taken a hard left turn in politics. Become WOKE or they will show you the door. FM Global prides themselves on inclusion and diversity. While this is a great idea, they do not live up to their claims. They will deny your religious beliefs and give you no explanation as to their decision. My body my choice will only apply to abortions at this company apparently. Environment inside the research and approvals labs is definitely another con. You will be expected to do blue collar work for blue collar pay in a dirty cancerous environment. While they will supply you with whatever safety equipment and training necessary, it is impossible to avoid touching and breathing in the toxins you will be exposed to every day. Noone who has been their long term and has worked in these labs looks healthy. You will be reminded about the benefits every time you talk about opportunities elsewhere as if money promised to you when you retire will replace morals, health and dignity. Limited opportunity to advance without a college degree.

Pros

If you have the right management, there is room for growth. Benefits are very good. Pension, 401k, FSA, DCA, Health, Vision, Dental, Wellness Credits, etc. Time off is generous. Flexible Schedule. These things help make having a family a little easier.

Cons

This company has been around a very long time and used to be rated highly. Over the years it has started to go downhill with now being the push to drop this company to an extreme level of low morale. New CEO is making drastic changes which impact many in the negative. Company recently announced mandatory vaccination policy with no exceptions. Exemptions were allowed but almost all were denied. The company did this with no input from employees and with hardly any reasonable amount of notice. Everyone has been remote since March 2020 and Thanksgiving week the company announced NORMAL return to the office on 1/4 (normal doesn't exist anymore) with vaccination by 12/13 or termination on 1/4, For a company that has so much diversity and inclusion, this isn't something that was expected. You can be anything you want here but just not unvaccinated. Communication was terrible through all of it. No one would put anything in writing. Everything was verbal, information was constantly changing, etc. it's been a complete disappointment from a company I thought so highly of even 1 to 2 years ago.
