Mercer its a multionational company, that provides you with a very large knowlegde base, and its a good professional school. Because it has different lines of business, you can learn always something new when working with colleagues of different areas in common projects.

Sometimes people are seen as objects and numbers. This is changing, but should be faster.

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
