Pros

Fantastic Work-Life Balance, encouraging flexible working and mobile work practises. Has lots of potential for positive change and efficiencies. Good flexible benefits package.

Cons

At the Aviva Group Centre there is such a poor handle on HR and talent management issues. In three years I had 10 line managers, and not once did a HR representative email or talk to me about these changes. The 6 monthly appraisal system is completely flawed and is just a tick in the box exercise. Talent Management practises strangely only are available from 'Head of' and above, which to me is completely backwards. Recent mass redundancies made it openly apparent that the organisation is extremely politically motivated and senior management therefore are hard to trust.
