Pros

Great people...but sadly many of the good long term serving staff have left over the last 3 to 4 years

Cons

Poor executive leadership team, who do not face into tough decisions quickly enough. Poor leadership from the Australian leadership team in particular. Why is it the case that many good long serving staff members are leaving now? Why hasn’t management dealt with bullying allegations that included members of the leadership team? Mercer Australia’s leadership team has a well known reputation as a “boys club”. You’re either in it, or you’re not....and if you’re female, then good luck

Pros

Remote flexibility, which is nice.

Cons

You will not get a raise and if you do, it'll be 1%. Managers will not help you with escalating issues, you're on your own. It'll be blamed on you. You'll work so much overtime you won't have a social life.
