Pros

The schedule was some what flexible up until the restructure. Many of the people there were genuine and shared the same goals.

Cons

Lower than average pay. Understaffed. Leadership team does not understand how to keep its top tier talent while working through a company restructure.

Pros

Honestly, it’s hard to fill up the 20 word minimum: -Flexibility to work from home (double-edged sword) -Average pay and benefits -Genuinely nice co-workers

Cons

-Severely outdated technology and hardware that leads to overwhelming inefficiencies and frustration. -Lack of an internal database or filing system for documents, making it impossible to find resources anywhere. We still use a system from 10+ years ago... -Poor company culture focused on overwork... nobody takes breaks or goes to lunch, it’s almost frowned upon to take a moment to breathe. No team building, no activities - just work. -Staffing is spread thin and as a result work is often behind schedule, despite overtime hours. -Training and learning is derailed due to lack of man hours to provide instruction. Lackluster training program need improvement. -Few in-person interactions... everyone works from home or joins conference calls (even if they are all in the same building!); this is both isolating and inefficient in terms of communication and learning. Most managers are in a different time zone or work virtually. -Overwhelming focus on the client contact and not the actual user. I often feel we treat a lot of our participants poorly and no one really cares. -Lack of upward mobility; the company is full of lifers and you cannot get a promotion from your entry level job unless your manager retires. -Very little meaningful or challenging work on a day to day basis. Most of the time is spent babysitting off-shore colleagues and making sure they are actually doing their work.

Pros

Virtual Work Opportunities but not as much as before when it was Aon Hewitt.

Cons

New company is only concerned with meeting forecasted profit margins at all cost. Lots of layoffs, job eliminations, and hiked up benefit cost.
