Pros

Allianz has great benefits and salary. Full time remote opportunities for many.

Cons

Poor management, poor results. Worker levels take the beating for bad results that were overlooked by upper management, upper management doesn't listen to worker level employees as to why the results are bad, no team building meetings or team coherence, guidelines are outdated and vague, NO work life balance - you have to put in at least 50-60 hours each week to manage all of the tasks that are required of you.

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.
