Pros
Im leaving soon to work for a competitor. People in none sales groups are friendly and collaborative. They have a big name but some buyers didn’t respect the brand of Aon.
Cons
Terrible on-boarding process. No formal training. You are sat at a desk and you start calling. To have sales success at Aon it won’t be based on your talent or skill set. You will have to play the political games internally and be willing to back stab internal colleagues. The hardest thing about selling for this company isn’t acquiring new customers it’s the politics and the lack of leadership to help navigate the internal matrix. If you CAN sell and have a rolodex of contacts stay away from Aon. If you CAN’T sell and have little to no talent but can play the political game you’ll have a better chance at success. Talent and skill set isn’t what wins at Aon. You have to play the political game.
