Pros

- Strong sense of community within teams, coupled with cross-departmental collaboration - Small-company-like benefits in terms of flexibility and team vibe, along with all the benefits of working for a larger organisation (generous holiday, competitive pay, schemes and perks) - Truly care about their employees wellbeing, the effort I've seen here is more than in any other company I've worked for - Investment in personal and professional development - opportunities for growth and movement across business areas - Working towards being more agile and digital - Given autonomy and trusted to crack on, but support is available if you need it

Cons

- Can take a while to get your head around all the different business areas (I'm still not there yet) - In terms of IT, there's a lot of different systems/processes to get your head around (which sometimes differ between business unit/location) and it can be difficult to navigate the information to find what you need - As with all large companies, it can be difficult and time consuming to implement real change at scale

Pros

AXA provides a friendly place to work which is even more important if you solely work from home. It has a great benefits package, I genuinely feel looked after and supported. I experienced first hand how AXA provide working parents with a great deal of flexibility and promote a healthy work life balance. Also the response mounted during the Covid-19 pandemic has been incredible, getting 90% of the work force working from home relatively easily was very impressive. Lastly open and honest communication from CEO and board of management promotes a culture of transparency and high morale.

Cons

Salary could be slightly higher, but the overall package more than compensates for this.
