Pros

Mercer offers a competitive salary and bonus opportunity, and the benefits available to employees are fair. Paid time off is a function of service OR job level which is nice.

Cons

Individuals in management roles are often not qualified to be people managers. The volume of services promised/sold to clients far exceeds the staffing capacity, resulting in long hours and weekend work on a consistent basis.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
