Hardest but most rewarding broker job you will ever have
Pros
Very entrepreneurial environment, which fosters great customer service and opportunity for meaningful individual contribution. Company is willing to invest in employees, and there is huge potential for personal growth and reward based on performance. Great resources and talent within the company.
Cons
Can be inconsistency between teams, in procedures, etc. and often not a clear sense of roles and direction. Expectations are very high and the environment can sometimes feel a bit chaotic. At the AE level, you have to be available 24/7 almost without exception. The successful Lockton employee has to be able to adapt and thrive in this environment, and to be a creative and often autonomous problem solver, so this can either be a pro or a con depending on the individual. It's important to understand the culture of Lockton as it's not for everyone. Lockton does a great job of explaining and vetting this up front but it is generally a love it or hate it environment, which ultimately makes for very cohesive, high performance teams when everyone is in sync with the culture.
