      Don't believe "high score results" from employee engagement survey

      Pros

      Mercer (still) has an excellent brand name and reputation. Though recruiting is run by admin staff and has mercurial management influence, it's very choosey. In New York, it brings in top Cornell, Yeshiva, Rutgers and Columbia grads, so it's a stimulating place to begin a career. Don't stay more than 2 years.

      Cons

      A shadow of what it was. In 2009, all the top performing partners left, followed by a delayed exodus of the analyst staff in 2010. The NY practice rebuilt and has a handful of good stories, as people learn compensation analytics. All other practice areas are in the dumps. Rather than address any of the underlying issues, management did more or the same, just instituted tougher controls on an otherwise low-performing partners/principals ("duds").

      Pros

      There is lots of opportunity to advance in the company at the beginning of your career, things move fast and you progress quickly. The people at Mercer are all pretty dedicated and pull out all the stops to try and deliver on our promises.

      Cons

      No clear career path as you get farther up the chain. Mercer invests less in their employees that they used to.
