Pros

Salary. London office / location to Insurance Market. Career Opportunities if a Partner supports you.

Cons

Very Hierarchical. Inflexible. Old fashioned benefits. The culture - they talk the right talk with family values and philosophies, but on the ground there are a lot of huge ego’s with very old fashioned, sexist views and resistance to change which Executives and the Head of HR are not interested in managing. Partners are god regardless of bad behaviours, inappropriate banter and there is a day time drinking culture. This is a tick box company. They say they are inclusive and diverse but are far from it, for example Associate groups such as Women in Lockton are created to tick the box, but are inactive internally and there is a huge reluctance to flexible working hours / agile working before and after Covid.

Pros

A true “team effort” environment. I think it really depends on who your team lead is and the dynamic of the group you work with. You will get a ton of experience fine tuning skills as they provide constant trainings and resources to learn. Decent pay when compared to competitor companies and great 401k plan. Plenty of company and marketing events. Hybrid work is great. Again to preface, who you work with can make or break the atmosphere, but everyone I’ve met has been extremely nice and willing to help. Opportunities to grow within the company.

Cons

Health benefits could be better. Company is really pushing new business and there can be a lot of work and last minute fires to put out that can feel daunting. There have been quite a few times I’ve worked late into the night to get things wrapped up. You need to self organize or things can easily fall through the cracks very quickly. A lot of meetings that can take up a majority of your day - leaving less time to get actual work done.
