Pros

Guy Carpenter offers great salary and benefits (including pension!). Its offices are often in prime real estate areas. The company has a stable revenue base

Cons

Getting a position without internal connections is difficult- they often make poor hiring decisions based on non-traditional factors as client connections (i.e. most young professionals get their jobs via a connected parent, some poor dept leaders have been "found" this way).
