Aon reviews

Management was awful. My boss never provided any formal training (I never did the new employee orientation because I was expected to start renewing accounts immediately), and when I expressed concerns about the program and the systems, he completely passed it off as an annoyance. I never knew exactly what my role was despite asking for more clearly defined roles, so I ended up doing everything. We were expected to work like robots, including through holidays, since management only cared about revenue. I also felt that there were holes in the ethics of the program in terms of how renewals were handled. Once I realized that the program and management were unwilling to change, I decided it was time to leave. Aon is so big, that sometimes management doesn't see problems with colleague morale and executives need to pay attention to that. I would have stayed if I was able to transfer to another business unit. I think that your manager defines your experience at Aon, and my boss was one of the worst people I've ever worked for.

Massive organization means lots of administrative burden, slow changes, and red tape
