Pros

Very good employee benefits, Nice environment overall, with a lot of training available, Gain exposure working with large companies they insured, Provides really good work stability, it's not uncommon to hear someone celebrating 30+ years of service

Cons

Limited growth opportunities if you don't have an engineering degree, Very process oriented and structured, frequently it takes a lot of time to take a decision as senior management has to authorize it, It's not a very agile company, most of the people started they career with the company and that makes it hard to accept changes and do things in a more efficient way,

Account Engineer

Pros

The role can be interesting if you have accounts that are active in risk improvement and/or growing. Co-workers are great and everyone works together to accomplish goals. FM provides a great work environment. The company provides a car and good work-life balance. Working for FM will provide a plethora of opportunities in the risk/insurance industry.

Cons

Pay is very low in comparison to competitors. FM stresses that competitors pay more because they do not have the training/research costs and that they are unstable. Apparently, if you leave the company, you will never be able to work for FM Global again. In order to move up the ladder, you have to physically move as turnover is low and opportunities are rare. You have to wait until someone quits or retires. The company tries too hard to differentiate themselves from the competition. Marketing efforts could be much better. FM lags in the use of technology.
