Mercer reviews

Horrible leadership, recognition, salary advancements and training. This large company runs like a small new startup in the sense of professionalism, training and work life balance. There really isn't much opportunity to advance title wise and the ones that do are done via political means within leadership opposed to skill and knowledge. VERY high turnover from sales on down which makes the managing of clients, processes and staff very difficult throughout the year.

In recent years, Mercer has reduced the amount of raises and bonuses offered to employees at the lower levels. This has led to a pattern of hiring excellent employees, spending thousands training them, getting six to eighteen months of high quality work, only to see them leave after a year or two to take a position where they are making more money with less stress.
