Good and Bad

Consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The pay (both salary and bonus) is very good as long as you are making your billable hours goal. The work is intellectually challenging and there is a nice variety of projects.

Cons

The work/life balance is basically non-existent. There is a heavy emphasis on making billable hours goals. If you are an actuarial student, you can pretty much write off much of your personal life.

Great place to work

Consultant

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Challenging and exciting work with great compensation. Compensation is based on the amount of time you spend at work, so hard work is rewarded.

Cons

It is difficult to have a balance between your work and your life, because you must meet your clients demands in order to stay in business.

Lots of opportunity for those with a "certain set of skills"

Business Outlook

Pros

Very generous benefits package to the point it makes salary alone almost an unfair comparison. I believe every 20+ Milliman consultant would be considered "on track" for retirement by any financial adviser. Their profit sharing and retirement plan match makes it nearly impossible to not be prepared. Health and other benefits are also outstanding.

Cons

There is no set career growth; it is what you identify and create for yourself. It is a very flat organization. Career growth is measured in skills opportunities not leveling up and job titles. There is a bias rewarding actuarial exams and other industry-based designations more than technical, human resources certifications. Milliman leadership provides the normal "thanks" but little more in showing appreciation for what you do. Going above and beyond is the norm so recognition for it is rare. It is important to self-promote and generate your own appreciation of your contribution to the firm and your career growth. Know when you are doing a good job whether managers acknowledge it or not.
