Pros

Ability to form your own career path and very flexible working environment. Great interaction between New York and London-based teams.

Cons

Inability of management to reward employees who perform and weed out employees who underperform.

Pros

Until recently a purposeful, dynamic company executing some good strategies. Many areas are market leading and a lot of focus has been placed on making operations efficient.

Cons

There has been a lot of senior management churn and this has created a sense of confusion and panic. Many people are genuinely concerned about their jobs. Willis have some strange rules and regulations eg insuring your own blackberry and the use of tough retention clauses to what are typically mediocre bonuses

Pros

Smart office (London). Some decent pockets of experts around the organisation. Recognised brand within the insurance world.

Cons

No clear vision or strategy for Willis Group. Second rate employee benefits, including overal remuneration package, except for a small minority. Absurd retention package unheard of elsewhere. Bizarre practices such as obliging employees to insure company mobile phones, take out a corporate card which is then billed directly to your own personal bank account - so what's the point of it? Poor investment in staff training and personal development. Unhealthy focus on expenses to the exclusion of everything else.
