Pros

a few good people work here, corporate matches 4% of 401 contribution.

Cons

benefits are awful at best, health insurance has deductibles for everything, copayments, and a coinsurance as they only cover 80%. lots to pay out for a dr. visit. dont get sick! mgmt enjoys working you hard and stressing you out. you are a mere cog to them. if this type of situation gets your juices flowing, this is the place for you to work. there are always too few people and too much work, and that is the attitude that permeates from upper management, not enough hours to get it done? they will say to work smarter and in the meantime, show up early and leave late, and here is weekend access to the office. if that doesn't do it for you, you are told to be happy you have a job. dont like it, there is the door. very demeaning and demoralizing culture here. it is quite depressing. your best bet is to just look elsewhere. this is not a good place to go if you value yourself and your career.

Pros

Gallagher can offer a great learning environment if you enjoy a fast pace environment where anything can happen day to day. Overall everyone pretty much enjoys what they do at Gallagher.

Cons

This company is very unorganized and political. You have to be extremely careful of who you speak with. It is a very dog-eat-dog environment. Try to learn all you can and get out since there is limited mobility for moving up in the company. It is not good to play "Mr. Nice Guy" because people will take advantage of you. Gallagher also does not value family at all. Expect to work long hours everyday. If you are looking for a great work life balance in a company, try to stay away.
