Pros

Stable company- no layoffs Generous vacation package shorter hours in comparison to competitors

Cons

Lower starting salary but expected to do the job of three people. Extremely low morale, no sense of team work every man for himself. If you are a hard worker you will not receive any more of a raise than someone who is lazy. People are not polite not friendly and will smile in your face while stabbing you in the back the minute you walk away. Talking is discouraged while gossip is encouraged even by management. This is an old company with old 80's style management and people who need to retire because they are miserable. If culture is important to you STAY AWAY

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.
