Pros

Competitive salary is available for some positions . The organization is vast so there are many avenues for cross training or gaining insight from colleagues in other practice areas.

Cons

Large organization with an impersonal communication style. Revenue and expense management driven organization. Opportuniies for providing customized service to customers are limited by the requirement to follow established procedures.

Pros

- Work is challenging - Benchmarking and survey data provides value - Can build a large network across employers, vendors and carriers

Cons

- "Merit" or annual pay increases are often less than annual Federal cost of living adjustments to address inflation. I have earned less every year I remain at WTW. - If promoted, raise is combined with "merit" and dilutes both amounts. I've never heard of one person being satisfied with merit + promotion salary increase. If anything, this is the final trigger to seek employment elsewhere. - High billable rates paired with higher execution/client satisfaction expectations yet overall pay/comp don't reflect it. Internal systems and process distract from productivity and impact. - Limited to no investment in training and development outside of internal webinars - Always hear "our people are the difference" yet it doesn't feel like that when it comes to total comp, professional development, and systems/tools that make sense - After 7 years, burnout is high amongst colleagues and I personally can't imagine many more anniversaries. Many high-performing, valued colleagues have left in last 12 months
