Zurich Insurance-Strap in because change is ongoing and out of control

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Soild Brand and deep roots in the insurance / risk engineering industry Above average paycheck

Cons

> Reorgs every 6 months with no consultation...very sterile approach ("Outcome assessment" was title of my appointment to see if I still had a job after a large restrucure changing my role significantly with no input) > Company is marching toward significant changes using ready, fire, aim methodology; Hacksaw Greco is turning into a one-trick pony by slashing expenses for short term earnings bump. > Reorgnaization in an already widespread company all over the globe makes job satisfaction slim to none as your are always finding brick walls.
