      Great people, but ridiculously low compensation.

      Pros

      - A lot of incredibly talented, but friendly people to work with; - Minimal levels of office politics; - Good support for further studies; - Somewhat flexible work/life balance, depends on which department you work in; - Good opportunities to transfer to other departments;

      Cons

      - Low pay. Ridiculously low pay compared to competitors and other corporates. - Low benefits. Seriously, employees of other companies less well known than Mercer get more love than we do. Even retail banks pay more than Mercer. - Career progression. It's hard to progress in Mercer. It seems easier to just leave the company for two years and come back rather than stay for those two years in terms of getting a promotion.

      Pros

      Great place to learn, no egos. Busines overall is doing well, and is positioned very well into the future to dominate the space. Easy to take on responsiblities and many opportunities available to learn new skill sets.

      Cons

      Salary is way below competitors, and will hurt the long run ability of Mercer to keep top talent, in addition, compensation needs to be reworked to better compensate people based on their work. Work goes in cycles, can be very busy at times and sometimes not at all.
