Pros

Colleagues generally stick together. Some nice people. The pension scheme is really rather good. Good variety of experience can be gained. Not a lot else to say.

Cons

Management is awful. Have dealt with some disgustingly unprofessional people. Aon is way ahead in many areas and GC will never catch up. A lot of employees are of a low standard. Ambition is pointless at GC. Everyone is a clock-watcher. No good training. Pay is way below the market. Someone is always leaving - they cannot keep their employees. Unbelievable levels of corporate politics. Almost everyone in my team is looking for a new job!

Pros

Good atmosphere. Friendly. Fantastic broad range of global, regional and country specific clients. (Probably the best in the market). Great market reputation.

Cons

No training to really speak of. Hard to progress (dead man's shoes) resulting in a frustrated junior workforce. Low salaries.
