Pros

If you can not find other work, it's a job.

Cons

Work life balance? What's this? GB may state they offer this by "being flexible" but this really means, they'll let you run errands but you better be by your phone. Vacation? Illness? Death in the family? They do not care. You better be by your phone. They'll let you go, they'll just call your cell or not so subtly require you have wifi and your laptop. The workload expectations are unrealistic. Then they'll ask if there is anything they can do, as though giving you 80 hours of work to be done in 40 is feasible. They'll start nice and supportive, but then the mask will slip.

Pros

I was part of a team that provided outside HR services to clients, which is not what the majority of what Gallagher does, so take my review with a grain of salt. - Cool office; easy to get to - Lots of webinars you can take that are provided by Gallagher (for free) and get SHRM credit for

Cons

I'm not too sure if these are "big company" kinda things or just Gallagher, but: - Loads of red tape. - Onboarding was atrocious -- I wasn't even in the system for my first month. Also, there was a lot of confusion between in-office onboarding and "Gallagher" onboarding. I'm sure each region has their own specific way of managing this, but my region was non-communicative to me...which probably had a lot to do with me not being in the system, but my manager also wasn't forthcoming with information. When I finally did get added, the required training and system training were sooo clunky that it was hard to understand where to find things. - Healthcare benefits suck. Especially if you have high-cost prescriptions and see a doctor regularly. - I remember PTO not being great either. The rest of my grievances are from the culture difference between my team and the rest of the region, which stemmed from my manager, who is no longer working there.
