Leadership is a mixed bag, honestly
I've worked as an Underwriter in the New York City office for a few years. It's a big corporate company, so you expect some bureaucracy. The leadership here has its moments, but it's not always consistent across teams. Sometimes you feel supported, other times not so much.
The **insurance industry** is stable, and AIG provides good job security for **underwriter roles**. There are solid resources and training available if you're proactive. It's a good place to learn the ropes in a large, corporate environment.
Leadership can feel out of touch with daily operations for those of us on the ground. Decision-making is often slow, and there's a lack of clear direction from upper management sometimes. Career progression can feel like a guessing game here.
Try to get more input from front-line underwriters and improve communication channels. Streamline decision-making processes. Invest more in visible career paths.
