Pros

-Some nice people -headquarters is pretty

Cons

It was a very culty environment, where favoritism was heavily applied. The talent leader at the time embarrassingly showed favoritism to the Gallagher family members throughout the GCAP program and dismissed others that he didn't consider were of importance. Gallagher's got talent was a way for leaders at Gallagher to belittle the new grads hired out of college by giving harsh feedback and having unrealistic expectations in regards to goal setting. I've conversed with other people my age in sales positions and no one has experienced something similar to the internal competition Gallagher made us all go through. Would not recommend working here.

Pros

Remote working options for full time employees

Cons

I worked with my team for a full year and never video chatted with them, got to know them, or formally trained with them. My management team was brutal and even as a new starter, the individual I had started with and I both felt like we were not given what we needed to succeed. I got yelled at by a higher up on my second week for not responding to an email that I was told by another employee I should not respond too. Such a lack of communication, my 1:1 with my manager never lasted more than 3 minutes. I’ve worked in account management for years and this was one of the worst and strangest working environments I’ve ever had. Don’t recommend

Pros

fair work life balance, in which they offer decent time off for vacation, sick days average 5 percent stock match decent medical benefits

Cons

high stress company pays on an 18 month average for raises, but give you a COL index of 3 percent, in which you lose money overall, and before that had to wait 2 1/2 years for a raise the time before that A once a year bonus that isn't even guaranteed and subject to removal by the board of directors, in which the bonus isn't even a decent percentage of your salary dealing with management that want to micro manage you constantly
