Progressively more depressing and stifling... get me outta here
Pros
The Willis employees are the best reason to work at this company and its greatest asset. Many talented individuals, and also access so to some wonderful clients/networking.
Cons
Retention awards you have to earn over the next three years, low pay, no cost of living pay increases, awful benefits. They have taken away the pension plan, reduced the 401K contribution, and I have not had a raise since 2008 despite working for a profitable business unit with a huge profit margin. They wont spend the money and invest upfront for quality systems, instead do every thing as cheap as possible. They have cut every corner to save expenses - sending employees repeated emails asking them to take unpaid time off, when we cant afford it. On top of that, they want you to donate your money in the company's name for their charity - cheap PR. Like previous poster stated - very Orwellian. The top management communicates to the employees like we are a bunch of naive weak minded cattle.
