Pros

Some truly talented people who care about the best interests of their clients. Some great people to work with. Lots of young talent with potential in all areas of the company.

Cons

Back office Senior Management has no clue. Significant resources devoted to KPI reports, but staff is then told they don't really tell the entire picture. If that is the case, why develop them? All power resides in the hands of a few old timers who have no clue how to treat people or develop them. Very political at the top. Line level staff are not fooled by the public persona...nobody trusts Management...they are just afraid to say anything and get blackballed. Those who do speak up are usually gone within a couple years. Massive talent outflow in the past 3 years.

Pros

Colleagues generally stick together. Some nice people. The pension scheme is really rather good. Good variety of experience can be gained. Not a lot else to say.

Cons

Management is awful. Have dealt with some disgustingly unprofessional people. Aon is way ahead in many areas and GC will never catch up. A lot of employees are of a low standard. Ambition is pointless at GC. Everyone is a clock-watcher. No good training. Pay is way below the market. Someone is always leaving - they cannot keep their employees. Unbelievable levels of corporate politics. Almost everyone in my team is looking for a new job!
