Pros

People are very bright and once they have kicked back a few drinks they loosen up and personalities actually begin to develop!

Cons

Leadership? Leadership is too busy to pay any attention to what the individual managers are up to. Then, when things are escalated, and probably too late- they become involved. The managers need training, the staff needs training. When leadership is engaged- they are great- it just does not happen all the time. Too bad. It would create a better environment and change the culture.

Pros

The only reason to work at Willis is if you have exhausted every other opportunity, you are trying to hide out from creditors, are ok with working under factory conditions and have no place else to go.

Cons

A company run by arrogant people that have no idea what they are doing. Their only solution to fixing problems is to cut costs (see April Bloomberg report). You would think that life would be better post Plumeri. Current employees are irrepreably tarnishing their careers by staying employed at Willis.

Pros

You’re able to work from home. Good hours. You start early and end your workday early so you have a lot of time after to go do other things.

Cons

Too many to list: Hire people for cheap. A lot of responsibilities for the pay. Every single thing you do is monitored including if you have to leave your desk to use the restroom. The customer service persona bleeds into the office culture. So many overly nice people that it comes off as forced and fake. Most annoying office culture I’ve worked in. Incredibly strict. Strictest job I’ve had by far. They’ll let you go at the drop of a hat from what I’ve heard.
