Pros

Lots of opportunities to work overseas, benefits are above market average, working hours are reasonable, staff around the world are willing to help

Cons

Quite bureaucratic at the senior management level, very difficult to get a promotion, you can get very isolated from the insurance market if you are not working front-line
