Pros

The company atmosphere is very professional. Management treats everyone with respect and are helpful. If they like you very much, chance are they will take you on board full time.

Cons

I my opinion, I didn't really see any thing that bothered me to complain about. But, as per some associates, upward mobility is very limited.

Pros

Willis is one of the largest employee benefits brokers in the U.S. As an employee, you will learn a great deal given the wide range of benefit plans and client sizes within their client base. The people are, for the most part, willing to share knowledge and assist in your development and knowledge. Willis is also on of the largest property and casualty brokers in the U.S. which provides opportunity to provide more to clients than just one set of solutions.

Cons

Willis has much potential to be a great employer because of its size and capabilities. However, the organization has its client management team spread so thin amoung the clients that the producers often end up client managers. This problem limits the producers time for sales production and contributes to work/life balance challenges for the client manager. Client managers work significantly beyond 40 hours due to a heavy account load. The bonus compensation involves signing an agreement to pay back the bonus on a prorated basis if the employee resigns which deflates the reward of getting a bonus. The insurance benefits are all paid entirely by the employee except for the medical plan, which are only high deductible plans. The retirement plan is a 401K where the match requires 5 years vesting before the employees owns any of the match.

Pros

Fantastic clientele, mainly FTSE100/Fortune500 firms Varied projects and challenging work Generous benefits - pension (DC), car allowance, leave etc... If you are an actuary it's a great place to work, if not, look elsewhere!!

Cons

Lots of grey-haired partners and management with traditional views and outlook Lack of commercial and dynamic leadership Long hours, if you are an actuary - work work work, till the cows come home! Career progression not as clear cut, particulary moving from Band 4 to 5....forget about 6!!!
