Marsh Risk reviews

- Internally focused vs client focused (and yes, clients are noticing) - So many procedures, forms, processes that getting actual work done is difficult - especially at the Client Rep level - Morale at an all-time low (and it's been low for years) as Marsh changes systems/processes AGAIN - Many of the best people are also the lowest paid. Being a long-time employee guarantees you will not be paid the same as someone who is hired fresh at the same level. - Local management cannot get anything done without NY approval - Continually claim that people are the best asset of the company but employees are overworked, underpaid, and unappreciated (and if you are exempt expected to work overtime in order to be recognized; or if non-exempt looked down upon for not being able to get all your work done within an 8.5 hour day) - Diversity initiative is laughable as it's all surface talk - Middle Market at Marsh is especially challenging as Marsh does not value mid-size clients the same as the Fortune 500's or the people that work on them.

No career trajectory. Lack of recognition. Promotions not based on achievement. Those who deserve promotions do not get it because only a certain number of people per department can get it a year. Getting promoted from Risk Analyst is a pay cut because you go from non-exempt to exempt and are therefore ineligible for overtime. Too many team leaders that serve no purpose. Unfair treatment between those with and without children. No training. Risk Analyst formal training program is non-existent. This spring, there was a huge mass exodus of young people leaving for competitors or going back to school. Pay is okay for a starting salary but salaries are frozen and bonuses are minimal. Brokers hoard their accounts and are unwilling to give opportunities to young people because they need a minimum amount of revenue tied to their names. No opportunities to move to other departments. Stuck where you are!
