Pros

Excellent work at home flexibility for some teams. PTO is generous for long term employees. Solid 401(k) match program.

Cons

Medical benefits plans/options are not great. Flexibility to work at home is great, but there is absolutely no work/life balance. You work, and work some more. As team members leave, replacing them is difficult to due the specialized niche that is Benefits Administration. Already overworked employees continue to have additional work loads and deadlines placed on them. No member of the senior management team could log in and do the work the analysts do.

Bullying Culture

Pros

I think the national company has good intentions.

Cons

Mercer Phoenix has a strategy of finding intelligent workers and then pitting them all against one-another in sort of a "may the best man win" sort of way. After I had been there for about two months, a colleague told me that in order to be successful there, you needed to be able to throw other people under the bus, and in his mind, I didn't have what it takes. He was a major under-the-bus-thrower and is very successful there. The bullying culture was unlike anything I have seen in my career and not something I wanted to get used to.

Thank you for the feedback and for taking the time to write this review. We take your comments very seriously because at Mercer we have zero-tolerance for bullying of any kind. We will be following up internally on the details you have provided. We are clearly disappointed to hear about the experience you had while at Mercer.
