Pros

Lots of talented people. Lots of different things going on. Barriers between business units eroding which is leading to better collaboration. Management moves forward with hard decisions.

Cons

Takes a while to root out bad managers - but they do it. Younger people get a bit stuck if they are in a department that depends on lots of renewal business. Kind of cookie cutter and they get bored and leave.

friendly colleagues and some great people to work with, flexible work hours

Cons

bad management, incompetent, disorganized firm since the merger, no clear communication, lack of opportunities, promotions are not always based on merit. Since the merger, the stress has increased significantly, high turnover in the office due to lack poor communications and bad management

Pros

Reasonably relaxed atmosphere Nice people who generally have an open door policy Company is making efforts to promote community within the organization

Cons

Partly a consequence of different systems and structure, associates still viewed as Watson Wyatt or Towers Perrin not Towers Watson. Not enough done by management to promote teamwork or integrate/educate the different groups so this situation unlikely to change in near future.
