Pros

A large global insurance organisation with share options and an annual incentive bonus for certain job functions

Cons

Split personality disorder abounds. AXA's annoying adopted kid brother from 2018 - XL. This, my friends, is one confuuuuuused organization run by yes men and yes women sucking up and on to the French teat in Paris whilst they try to impress their new adoptive parent and reassure them that the 2018 acquisition was money well spent (remains to be seen). RIP XL Catlin; say hello to AXA XL. Or, more simply put, XL - a division of AXA. Do not kid yourself: short of the AXA logo on your email signature you are NOT working for AXA. You are working for a Bermuda-based sweatshop with huge swaths of American influence and control. There is nothing remotely European or 'AXA' about this company.

Pros

401k match and work life balance.

Cons

Mandatory 3 day in the office, abysmal raises (2-3%), and overall crappy culture. They're trying to improve the culture with “culture champions”, but it is just lip service because the company refuses to provide any meaningful budget for food or branded gifts for their employees. Office is very quiet and not in a good way. There is NO upward mobility unless you’re already in upper management.
