Old school culture, monotonous work

Pros

Management has done a great job at being organized with training and procedures. Decent first job, but wouldn't spend too long here.

Cons

Culture, benefits, organizational structure. I truly felt like a robot during my time at Gallagher. They mainly were concerned with their employees churning out work, despite the volume. First impression was the office had a stuffy, odd vibe. Definitely one of the more strict brokerage houses in terms of culture and general “rules”. There is a lack of progressive and innovative culture. Gallagher thoroughly embraces the archaic reputation of the insurance industry. Benefits and pay we’re sub par.

Pros

There are some good people, but they are not in management.

Cons

Awful environment. Management is completely a popularity contest. You better plan on drinking every night with bosses if you want a promotion or even to be recognized for your work. Communication is terrible and all around this is the worst company I have worked for.

Gallagher is deeply committed to promoting equal employment opportunities at every level of the organization. All employees, no matter their background, are held accountable for achieving performance objectives to retain their positions or move ahead in the company. We value the contribution of all of our employees to continue to grow and thrive. Since our most recent Engagement Survey, Gallagher has been working to transform how we communicate across the company to keep our employees informed and engaged. We will be launching more resources and tools this year to support our employees as well.

Unproductive Changes

Pros

Work from home is offered. Benefits are typical of the industry. Pay is typical of the industry.

Cons

Changes are being made that are not productive. Need a note in a file great. Why put it in there 5 different ways? It’s a waste of time. These changes are coming from the top but make zero sense for the employees doing the work. Instead of a 15 minute job you now have 30 minute job. That adds up at the end of the day. There are employees working 18-20 hrs a day that can’t keep up with the impossible new changes. There just aren’t enough hours in the day.
