Pros

- flexible hours - can work from home most of the time with no one suggesting a full return - decent benefits which you'd expect from an insurer

Cons

- office is old and outdated - technology and systems are messy - management are inexperienced and insecure, creating a very hostile and cutthroat environment - processes are either non existent or sub par, with no desire to fix them - hr put you through disjointed and irrelevant onboarding sessions, but don't take the time to explain the numerous systems theyre operating on and you can't keep track of what's expected of you - everyone is secretly miserable but too afraid to say it in case the person they speak to stabs them in the back - serious malaise and inaction. They could be told the building was on fire and would have to schedule a meeting to discuss before evacuating the building - continued praise for the irish entity by group would suggest issues across the entire allianz group

Pros

Good benefits, hybrid work arrangement is flexible (you can choose your 3 days in office)

Cons

Tenure and friendship is valued more than actual skillsets. Many people in Ops have no formal college education or true technical skills, and have been complacent in the dept for 10+ years. This leads to inefficient and stale processes that are reluctant to change. The culture is extremely passive aggressive and long-tenured employees are not welcoming to new hires from outside of the organization. People will go out of their way to sabotage opportunities for those offering new perspectives with greater value add. This causes forced interactions with low value collaboration. Many in analytical roles do not even understand basic Microsoft Office skills, Excel functions, V/XLOOKUPS, etc. and data is often reviewed manually per line item… This company is run like a low budget mom and pop shop where inefficient and backwards practices are toxically in circulation.
