Working here has honestly made me a sh*tty person. I have no idea how to relate to others and, frankly, I hate many of my coworkers because they represent AIG, like me. I don't even feel I have the patience to interview well with other companies, especially insurance companies, because I can't help but assume they're not going to be much different than here.
Clearly this is all nonsensical and irrational but that's what garbage companies do to hard working employees. Despite the fact that i'm searching around, feeling burnt out, making relatively less money than what I started with when i first joined, and having a manager who talks to me as if "i'm solely responsible for my career at AIG" (which, to me, sounds like a manager who is subverting his/her responsibility to develop employees) is totally soul crushing. On top of that, given many of our experiences with the mid-level "leadership" at this company, why would any of us even want to discuss our career progression with our managers. It's abundantly clear that the type of culture AIG values in its management is that of fear and insecurity. Don't speak up and stagnate, or speak up and get stonewalled..
