Pros

.Great place to work if you value work/life balance. The company overall has female representation in higher levels, and throughout the company. They appear to be making a significant effort towards diversity. Strong “team” culture. Top talent at all Levels.

Cons

Mercer is not a good place to work for low performers - frequent “reductions in force”, where they eliminate low hanging fruit. Compensation is not quite as good as what someone could get somewhere else. Diversity is lacking. Dallas office upper management is all male.

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
