Pros

Autonomy. Deep resources. Access to very smart people so there are always chances to learn.

Cons

Not enough PTO. WTW is a big firm and sometimes lacks the connection to firmwide resources. Ex: I tried getting a benefits question answered (I am in benefits consulting so I know it's something the employer should know) and they kept referring me to the vendor who kept referring me back to the employer. Given how much collective knowledge we have as a firm, our internal resources on this should be flawless. We should also know an internal HR person who we could escalate the issue to. Ex: no one knows how to get advanced IT support like a list of who is getting a new laptop.

Pros

Learning everything about Life insurance, annuities and health

Cons

They are quite two-faced. Thry gas you up thinking you are doing well then turn around and terminate you for any slight. For instance---you must be on camera during training but we were told if we were sick or not feeling too well, we can ask for accomodation. With the understanding that it would be taken into consideration. Well...it isnt. They throw it back in your face. They do not like criticism. Say something wrong, you're done. They listen in on the classes and even if they think you said something the complete opposite of what was said and taken out of context, they do not care about the truth for you bruised their ego. Do not believe them when they tell you you are doing good during training. Its more about how much you want to be under WTW's influence. In other words, NO CRITICISM IS ALLOWED. I would write more but this should suffice.
