Pros

Zero - I've been in corporate America for over 20 years and this is THE WORST ENVIRONMENT I have ever encountered. I couldn't run fast enough out of there.

Cons

*The mothership is all remote - it's very hard for new employees to meet others, gain a sense of community, feel welcomed; I'm thankful for others on my floor who tried to connect - none of whom were actually on my team *For being a benefits company, their insurance is crazy expensive; like really Gallagher? You can do better - but you refuse to do so *Their onboarding sucks - make sure you ask your future manager what kind of training, outside of useless Zoom meet & greets, you will be receiving - it's a huge company, they just expected new employees knew how to navigate it *Employees are rude to those who are trying to learn how to navigate this HUGE company - weren't you new once? *Managers don't know how to manage - total micromanagement by email despite me coming in several times a week and being very good at using MS Teams; for Pete's sake - pickup the phone and/or a MS Teams video call; review at 3 months was like it was from another universe - absolutely zero time/consideration given for employees to get up to speed/onboard (this despite hitting deadlines VERY EARLY on) *Employees lack compassion for new employees to the company *Expected to be available 24/7 *Requested time off not respected - had scheduled a college visit (parents weekend) but couldn't leave because I had to finish a last minute request. Sorry Gallagher - my family comes first. I'll never let a company do that to me again. * They talk a nice talk about culture - only applies to certain folks; the culture on my team sucked * My team was run like a chicken with it's head cut off - constant fire drills which were unnecessary (arbitrary deadlines) *Did I say my manager sucked?

Pros

Work from home, some decent co workers

Cons

Was brought on from AP merge and sorely missing the culture and my old job. Gallagher uses extremely Complex systems with minimal training, yes they train.. but if you ask questions they treat you like youre incompetent. Make sure you’re an expert in 30 days or else you’re not living up to expectations. Burnout culture is the norm. You are truly a “cog in the wheel” like they say within their values. Worst job I have ever worked, not good for mental health.
