Pros

Mercer has a good brand, clients and employees. It's also a good place to launch a career.

Cons

Career development is not a priority. For a company that advises companies on human capital issues, Mercer does a fairly poor job of managing its own human capital, either through professional development, compensation, training, etc. The culture is not unique or particularly good: one could find a very similar experience at any other consultancy.

Pros

Remote flexibility, which is nice.

Cons

You will not get a raise and if you do, it'll be 1%. Managers will not help you with escalating issues, you're on your own. It'll be blamed on you. You'll work so much overtime you won't have a social life.
