Pros

Mercer is a global company and the opportunity for growth continues to expand. If you are a self-motivated individual, the resources available will allow you to do great things.

Cons

Mercer is known for overworking and underpaying their employees. It is not uncommon for an employee to work 60+ hours a week and to still be asked to produce or deliver more. In addition, due to a recent reorganization, you may have peers that are 2-3 grade levels above you doing the same work.

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
