Pros

- Work from home 4 days a week. - Pay is good. - Laid-back and personable mid-level managers. - Free meals the first Tuesday of every month.

Cons

- With the layoffs and budget concerns, upward mobility is stalling. - Job stability concerns. They've had 3 layoffs in the past year and a half. - Preference for offshoring instead of investing in American jobs. - Senior Leadership struggles with goal definition and execution towards those goals. - 1 day mandatory in office. - Accountability issues. Leadership has struggled to enforce best practices for concern of offending people. - The bonus process is a little arbitrary. If you had a "good bonus" last year based upon your performance, they won't let you have a good bonus the next year because "it wouldn't be fair." And sometimes they say "we had a record profit and revenue year.... BUT there isn't enough money for bonuses." - Right now I wouldn't recommend WTW to friends, because I'm worried that I'll have a job in 6 months. I wouldn't do that to my friends.

Pros

Wonderful, intelligent colleagues, very collaborative, interesting work, lots of opportunity to move around the org

Cons

Risk averse so it’s slower to invest; penny wise but often pound foolish

Pros

Paycheck is great, people to work with are generally very intelligent, positive and professional. Many positions are work from home or at least hybrid. Continuous learning is encouraged. Since the company is technically British, it is very inclusive and has several networks to ensure inclusion (although some such as the menopause support group are UK based which isn't surprising as the US doesn't typically care about such things though they should).

Cons

The workload is often insane to put it mildly. You are expected to sort of "do everything". When you are encouraged to speak up if you have too much work, they pretty much tell you "well you just have to figure out how to get it done because we have to give you more work". There is blatant favoritism. Those who are liked are praised for giving detailed answers on calls and granted a month off of PTO while those not as well liked get grilled when they ask for one day off and are told "not to overthink" when they try to provide detailed answers.
