Pros

Stable company, good salaries, stable company, nice people, stable company, good career opportunities, etc.

Cons

This is the perfect company for people who want to stay at one company, not be overly challenged, stay there FORVEVER and retire. The average employee has been there 10-20 years. And it's not because Chubb is the best company in the world. It's because no one is overly challenged and employees are allowed to stay - whether they are significant contributors or not. Technology is from the 1970s. There are very few millennials. 50% of Chubb's workforce will be retiring in the next 5 years. If you aspire to Google, Yahoo, Amazon or Bloomberg, want to be innovative in a highly energetic environment, this is not your place. As an investor, I don't know how you would ever invest in a company this far behind the times.

Pros

Global reach, brand name/reputation, nice technology equipment and solid networking. Opportunity for internal mobility. Good 401k match.

Cons

Incredibly slow systems and stifling bureaucracy. Culture is overall relaxed but not very hospitable, which is likely both a symptom and cause of a high-turnover environment. Raises are well below inflation. Moral does not seem considerably high and the bureaucratic nature of work hinders development. All of these factors combined negatively impact motivation. Very little open discussion about marketplace trends and tedious processes make the role feel very administrative despite being more analytical at other firms who have improved their systems. The firm has done a great job of diversifying across product lines and geographies, but a very poor job of talent retention and upgrading systems, which are the long-term tailwinds that’ll put Chubb at the forefront of the industry.
