Pros

Work from home is required for most of the IT staff.

Cons

Mercer prides itself on employing more women than men in the IT industry. They do in fact do this, however the tradeoff is that they pay less than they pay their men, and women have to work far harder to reach management levels than men do, who are shuffled right up the ladder without a blink of the eye. It's all marketing. IT roles are flying out of the country faster than one can say GOSS. US employees are being laid off at an alarming rate as their client teams are dissolved on the US side.

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
