Experts in the field, intellectual capital everywhere, best of the best and bring solid solutions to their clients. Mercer is respected in the employee benefits community. Mercer allows you to work in client teams and as an individual professional bringing your experience and expertise to the team.

Cons

Work/Life balance is mentioned but not practiced. Meeting the client's needs are more important than the employee's "balance" needs.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
