Generali Versicherungen

Training/further training is in order. Lively exchange between employees.

Working climate Modernization of products Support for lateral entrants

Based on my experience, I can't write anything good even after many years

My salary is not bad, but I still give it 1 star because what Generali does to its policyholders makes me want to give up the job. I can only confirm what KGeld.ch wrote in December 2023, for example, about the mixed life/savings policies. I'm not allowed to write here about how policyholders are treated here and I simply cannot accept it. I don't want to be complicit either, neither with my relatives and acquaintances nor anywhere else.

The employees are all nice and helpful. It's a nice mix of genders, cultures and other internal service providers which makes the work, team play and environment enjoyable. All of this just not from a home office perspective. Support from superiors is available and offered. Salary and benefits are fair.

Due to permanent cost-cutting measures and constant pressure to perform with decreasing team size and constant/increasing areas of activity, the working atmosphere is suffering. You notice that certain people are dissatisfied, but somehow have to come to terms or draw consequences. Additional reorgs further burden the climate. Within a year the climate has gone from good to satisfactory. Unless something changes this will continue. Right now, everyone / every team is mainly looking out for themselves. This was not always the case and is therefore a pity to observe. Unfortunately, it doesn't make Generali very attractive as an employer at the moment.

The application process was much faster than with other companies, received a reply quite quickly and set a deadline very quickly. Yeah, you actually wear yourself out from the beginning. But in most industries (except services, which are slowly changing) this is already quite common, so I can't understand the outraged comments below. A very human atmosphere both in conversation and in everyday work.

They are mainly individuals with potential for improvement, but they exist in every company. Perhaps the wage policy should be reconsidered.

I felt very valued throughout the entire recruiting process. The atmosphere in the discussions was pleasant and the line and HR were well prepared, so that I immediately felt comfortable. They also took enough time for my questions, so that I could get a good picture.

As in all larger companies, the response time sometimes took some time, but I didn't find that disturbing.

Unfortunately, the 20th century has not yet arrived at Generali. They're actually just looking for male powers. That says it all: women with expertise are not welcome.

HR - openness for female professionals, managers, experts.

The application process was uncomplicated and took place in a friendly atmosphere. The communication was extremely fast and one appreciates the strengths that one brings along as an employee.

I cannot criticize anything because of the fast and positive application process.
