Very demanding place to work

Pros

Entry-level compensation was generous. Relocation assistance seems to be typically provided. Bonuses and pay raises are no longer frozen. Potential to learn a lot about the industry.

Cons

Poor work/life balance well over 3/4ths of the year. Bonuses do not offset the amount of time needed to actually get the bonus.

Pros

Great office in London Pockets of excellence in terms of people Some very good initiatives being developed and launched Good work-life balance

Cons

Ridiculous 'retention' scheme means that if you leave within 3 years of getting a bonus you have to pay a pro-rated amount back (i.e. leave after 18 months and pay back half). This is ridiculous when you consider that they typically pay well below average. If you have a blackberry, you have to take out your own insurance or replace the phone out of your own pocket. They actually hold people to this. Seriously. I wouldn't mind this so much if the blackberry were a perk, but it's not.

Pros

Well run as a business with a proven track record of success. The size of Willis allows movement amongst teams and roles with quick progression in terms of learning the business. Great people to work with who are extremely knowledgeable.

Cons

Compensation, in particular, for young people is uncompetitive compared to the competition.
