Pros

Decent pay. Flexibility. Lots of opportunities for development. All the support of a larger company.

Cons

For being such a large corporation, I wonder if their health benefits could be better. Unfortunately, they certainly contribute to the widening compensation gap between the Haves and the Have-Nots.

Pros

Super friendly people who for the most part have been there a very long time. You know you are working with the best in the industry.

Cons

Pay raises are very minimal if any occur at all (like 1-3% from what I saw), and it takes a very long time to get promoted. Most of the time, it feels like they do not value the employees. They will say it with words, but actions behind the words are minimal to non-existent. Great stepping-stone job, not long term if you are young and wanting to grow.

Pros

If you're in Aon Risk Solutions and are client facing, you'll have large, high-profile clients. Aon is, after all, one of the largest brokers in the world. The pay is about average for the industry. Work-life balance is reasonable. After you get the hang of things, you'll be able to switch your brain off (if you consider that a pro...which I do not.)

Cons

I've worked at two of the three largest brokerage firms and in management consulting. Aon is shockingly non-collaborative. In my 10+ years, I'm not sure I have found more poorly trained managers. It's a highly political organization, and the in-fighting and bitterness between divisions and teams is palpable. Aon has a reputation for internal "fiefdoms" and it has created a very disjointed organization. Please do not write my review off; I'm not simply trying to flame an old boss or employer. I honestly want to warn others, so you don't make the wrong call and bounce after <1 year. If you value teamwork and want to feel passion for your work, I cannot recommend you join Aon.
