Pros

Benefits are good. Pension plan available after 5 years. Summer flex schedule is a nice perk (4 day work week).

Cons

Old company with little to no room for advancement. People have been employed for average of 25 years and no one retires.

Pros

Best reasons to work at FM Global include adequate compensation and benefits and a company product that is easy to get behind.

Cons

There are some sneaky reasons to be wary about FM Global, despite its good reputation. It is a very passive aggressive organization. A wolf disguised as a sheep, there is a good degree of backroom whispering and backbiting. Folks who come across as benign and well-meaning could be criticizing your work in the lunch room or, worse, to management. A job at FM Global can be both a blessing and a curse. You stay because you're paid OK and they give you a pension. Many people I worked with would rather leave, but don't feel they can walk away from the benefits. I guess it depends on why you hold a job: for the type of work you do, or the amount of money you make.
