Pros

-The people. Many of the people who work in the Austin office take much pride in their work, even though it's rarely recognized by Corporate -Good benefits/vacation policy -Career growth: if you know what you want and ask for it, opportunities are available. Your career is what you make of it at Marsh -Austin leaders are smart, positive and progressive -Great place to grow and shape your resume, but not a place for long-term career advancement -Large disconnect between local Austin office and Corporate

Cons

-Compensation is obscenely low, minimal raises. You know something's wrong when the referral bonus is almost double your R&R bonus -Austin office feels like the "bottom of the food chain" -Senior corporate leaders -Rigid work culture -Stagnant growth -Low pay is justified by keeping employees "dumbed down" instead of empowering them -Salary is non-negotiable -It takes a long time for meaningful change to happen

Pros

Colleagues are knowledgeable and helpful. Opportunity to work with world class clients. Brand recognition is unparalleled in the industry. Pension and 401(k) is rare in corporate America nowadays.

Cons

Employee turnover is out of control. It seems every week someone I work with resigns. This is due to increased workload, stagnant salaries and a sense that the company is not sharing its good fortune with the folks who produce it. Worse still is the fact that these positions often go unfilled, which creates a vicious cycle. There's a crop of baby boomers that seem to be counting the days until retirement. Promotions are hard to come by.
