Pros

Co-workers are experienced and knowledgeable (of those who are left)

Cons

No pay increases (will be 6th year) Sub par benefits and time off. When other companies were giving their employees bonuses due to the corporate tax cut, Gallagher gave its employees what it always gives them-lip service about how much they care. This is a company that managed to have zero federal income tax in 2018. Yet, if you are an employee that works in any type of service support capacity you will not be given a pay increase. Not even a cost of living adjustment. This will be year 6 without a pay increase. And what makes it even worse is that your constantly bombarded with corporate emails telling you how well the company is doing and the great work our employees are doing blah blah blah. And to top it off they are constantly touting their "Ethics" award from the Ethispere. "We've been named one of the most ethical companies for the eighth year in a row" crows Pat Gallagher. What is the worth of an "ethics" award where you, as the company, nominate your self and then pay the Ethisphere to use their logo or to advertise in their magazine or attend posh dinners for 8K a table in Manhattan? This company would nominate themselves for the Nobel Peace Prize if they could. Not very ethical leaving your employees to work for the same pay year after year while you make billions. But, alas this is the true Gallagher Way.

Pros

Great work-life balance as a remote employee. Management is approachable and genuinely willing to help when it comes to workload — you never feel like you're on your own.

Cons

Mentorship is largely self-driven. if you don't seek it out yourself, it won't come to you. Systems and internal processes can be slow and tedious, which adds friction to an already fast-paced workload. Compensation does not reflect the complexity or volume of work expected. High performers who are ready for the next step would benefit from clearer, more proactive promotion paths. When that structure is missing, talented people disengage quietly long before they ever leave.
