Mercer Reviews

Cons

Some processes too regimented which can cause client frustration

Cons

Leadership detached from most staff
Opportunities to develop reserved for senior staff

Cons

Lower pay/bonus than competitors, progression can be slow, old fashioned culture, very risk averse

Cons

Static management structure, hard to get promoted, hard to get recognition for making money for the company as they are more interested in networking and politics. Easy to get lazy as there is little incentive to perform. Goals are a mystery. Not great for ambitious senior staff - they do not stick around.

Salaries are low
Not enough value to the employees
Processes are extremely slow
Project management is not ok

Poor upper management create impossible work demands
Don’t replace staff when they leave
Very inefficient HR department

Outdated IT systems, Poor Salary, Lack of Career development that management & hr mention they are working on for years but still no career framework appears to be taking shape.

The management are disengaged from the analysts.
