Pros

The firm has integrity and is well respected. The resources and capabilities are outstanding and no other firm has more. You can have pride working for Mercer. The employees are very dedicated and collaborative.

Cons

The firm is slow to replace and add to staff. Workloads are tough, and you have to make a conscience effort to maintain work-life balance. I've learned to set limits, but for those who have trouble, they will work too much and be in danger of burnout.
