Pros

Work-life balance is good. Salaries are hard to grow but overall if you negotiate very hard you can get a fair compensation (nothing spectacular)

Cons

It is a highly political company, where meritocracy which used to be one of the motto comes second. There is a plan to promote a certain amount of women over a defined period which is also embedded in the targets of the management, this means men are highly discriminated and promotions are given to friends of friends or for diversity reason. Many good people have left the organisation which leaves you with a "lemon market" as poor people are promoted and good people leave. I definitely do not recommend the company. This is also bad for women as promoting a woman just to have a quota gives the impression that none of them are actually promoted because they are good at what their doing. The environment is pretty toxic even if it looks very friendly on the surface.

Pros

AGCS: very international, dynamic, diverse, challenging, great work/life balance, excellent place for young / mid age professionals, very profitable, many women in leading positions, many non-Germans in leading positions AGCS <> Allianz --> things much vary between the AZ operating entities

Cons

slow processes, not agile, very waterfall, development options for 50+ difficult, very political, kind of many cooks spoil the broth situation, many operating entities (OE) with a huge spread in corporate culture, values .. everything. It all depends on the OE where you work within Allianz, excellent ones and .. very German ones.
