I got cut from AIG few months ago. If you are technologist from FW, retrain in on demand technologies like cloud/security using severance period rather than taking a vacation. Unless you are in 50's (ageism impact) market is very hot in DFW area . I... — read more
2019 Cuts
Layoffs will continue well into 2019. AIG continues to think reducing headcount will help the bottom line when it is in fact a smokescreen for the fact the leadership does not know how to generate profits and write risk effectively...

Teams impacted today?
Anyone have more complete details as to teams impacted today and upcoming? I know of many in Fort Worth and some in Jersey. What I know is that many today were good people who bled AIG, worked numerous hours above and beyond the norm. I hope all of... — read more

Layoffs
Will continue per the town hall today put in a round about way. Heard of one layoff today in NY. Not sure which department though.
There is a good reason why STI is split out of the regular income
I don't agree with the people bashing stockholders. If you're not too rich to care about your STI, why would stockholders be too rich to care about how much their stock is worth? I own funds (probably most people do) with AIG as part of the market... — read more

Make a prediction and tell us what you think about AIG Layoffs in 2019 -- Thoughts??
AIG gets the approval to divide it’s European division due to Brexit
This is something that was expected and needed to be done in order to operate more effectively in Europe. Just hope that this division and reorganization in Europe isn’t going to be followed by reorgs on a personal level in the UK. That is definitely... — read more

any ideas?
Do we actually know more layoffs are coming?
I see so much talk about more layoffs coming, but there are no details, no concrete info, nothing. Do we actually KNOW more layoffs are coming? Or are we all getting bent out of shape for nothing?
Severance reduction?
Is it true we are looking at possible reduction in severance? I overheard something at the office, and if it's true then AIG is sinking even lower than I thought. But I'm honestly hoping what I heard were just idle rumors. Any chance somebody here... — read more
STI Damage
What's the scoop on sti funding? There's been talk as low as 50% funding.
Stock: 42.23
Whoa!! By the time it gets to 30, BD will be the only one left. There is no new business being written and laying people off in all departments left and right. There will always be hurricanes and tsunamis so is this going to be the continued excuse... — read more
Layoffs are the new norm at AIG
Layoffs are the new norm at this company. This has been going on for years now. They let go people with experience who actually know what's going on. They hire recent college grads who have no clue for half the salary. The they claim what a diverse... — read more
Strategy gone wrong: M&A over Buyback
Apparently, this mess with stock price can easily stop if BD decides to change course from M&A strategy to the old dictum of buy back. Not sure what's stopping the CFO kid to suggest that. But it isn't just AIG that'sh--. Even MetLife and others are... — read more
AIG stock down to $44, Well done
They will now start buying it back and continue to lay you all off. Time to look for another job.
Stock keeps going down, get ready for more layoffs
We seem to be in a free fall for the past several weeks and there is really no sign of it slowing down. And we all know that the only solution for that are layoffs. Not figuring out what's wrong with the company, not changing the strategy to maybe... — read more
Double standards
I agree that the environment is toxic with the fear of layoffs in many areas of AIG. Brian has been with the firm for more than 1.5 years and the stock went down more than 20%, when the S&P went up more than 10%. Seriously, where is the... — read more
Can current employees buy/sell stock on open market?
Can current employees buy/sell stock on open market? I don't know if it's allowed, and don't have employee handbook on hand right now
Lousy management
What's the deal with putting all the wrong people in management positions? People who can't manage themselves, let alone anybody else? Also, why would they pay higher rate to people from the outside they bring in for managerial position when there... — read more
AIG Execs bonus
I know below is old news but it will happen again. Senior Management is the only one who wins. NICE AIG execs received $6mn bonuses before mass layoff announcement
The culture of constant layoffs
I see people talking about layoffs at AIG on this board. Been following it for a while and saw a couple of you asking the question “ will the layoffs ever end?”. I really don’t know how everybody doesn't get by now that layoffs (and the fear of... — read more
