Aug 22, 2025

What I liked

Strong brand and credibility in the market. Good compensation and benefits. Many cross-border projects that broaden actuarial experience.

Areas for improvement

Communication across global teams can be patchy and remote coordination sometimes leads to duplicated work. Training for new tools could be more structured.

Mar 12, 2025

What I liked

Supportive team, technically strong colleagues, and great exposure to global reinsurance placements. Swiss Re invests in training and I’ve learned a lot about treaty structures and risk assessment.

Areas for improvement

Compensation could be more competitive for senior roles and decision-making can be slow because of matrix structure.
