Pros

Mercer offers competitive pay and a great benefits package. The office is huge and there are good resources for admins both in the office and available through corporate.

Cons

The management often asks the different Lines of business to do events and competitions, however, they don't realize that the Admins really do all the work for all of them. Also, if you get on a bad team, it's very difficult to move within the company. Admins are not promoted from within, regardless of what they tell you.

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.
