      Good Learning Opportunities, Long Hours

      Analyst

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good opportunities to get involved right away. Often times an Analyst can work directly with a Principal on a project team. In this setup, an individual can learn a lot right away.

      Cons

      An analyst should expect to work long hours. There is a general feeling that senior management does not respect an analyst's time. The annual review process is not very transparent, and many junior level staff are ultimately left confused about their rating. High performers are not awarded given their contribution, causing many to leave for better opportunities elsewhere.

      Great work/life balance

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Mercer is a place where you can balance your work and personal life fairly easily. There will not be many weeks where you work more than 40 hours. The people are smart and helpful for the most part. It is nice to mix with with MBAs and PHDs each day. Make sure you take the time to research the business unit before you take the job. There are some unique groups and a good fit is essential. Overall its a great place to work and there will be plenty of time to play, especially with coworkers.

      Cons

      Its a big company, so know what you want.

      Good place to work, but with some flaws.

      Analyst

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Friendly and helpful co-workers, great benefits, and a great work environment. Benefits are plentiful and almost any problem is quickly resolved with care and compassion. Although the pay isn't the greatest, almost everyone is happy to work there.

      Cons

      At certain times your workload drastically increases as well as stress. Many time consuming menial tasks could be outsourced and or handled more in a more efficient manner.
