Pros

Pizza parties instead of pay raises...

Cons

Underpaid, undervalued, talk about diversity but it is just to keep with the Jones versus actually doing it. Big company and easy to get lost in the mix. Never work in a service center, they will always strive to pay you as little as possible, no upward mobility, and get ready for 1-2% raises and laughable bonuses. Rotating door of colleagues because people see through the BS rather quickly. As a result, get ready for the frustrations of new colleagues that need to learn SOPs from scratch. Only got offered the opportunity of a promotion after resigning. Retail offices have more opportunity, but it all depends on who you report to. AON merger was a disaster—massive brain drain, battlefield promotions for the people who got left behind when others jumped ship and didn’t invite them. (They weren’t invited for good reason and now they are running the show) Upper management explained that the merger would be great for the world, innovation, BS BS BS—the DOJ said the exact opposite. The ivory tower management were just in it to line their own pockets and get golden parachutes. AON was happy to pay $1B termination fee after putting WTW through the ringer.

Pros

Learning everything about Life insurance, annuities and health

Cons

They are quite two-faced. Thry gas you up thinking you are doing well then turn around and terminate you for any slight. For instance---you must be on camera during training but we were told if we were sick or not feeling too well, we can ask for accomodation. With the understanding that it would be taken into consideration. Well...it isnt. They throw it back in your face. They do not like criticism. Say something wrong, you're done. They listen in on the classes and even if they think you said something the complete opposite of what was said and taken out of context, they do not care about the truth for you bruised their ego. Do not believe them when they tell you you are doing good during training. Its more about how much you want to be under WTW's influence. In other words, NO CRITICISM IS ALLOWED. I would write more but this should suffice.
