Pros
Ok. Difficult working environment at times. People are OK once you get used to them. Decent deal flow for a small group. Would probably do it again.
Cons
Comp is significantly below street. Very high turnover. Abrasive leadership, unclear direction within broader Willis group. Unclear whether investment banking model within an insurance brokerage is sustainable.
