Pros
-The people. Many of the people who work in the Austin office take much pride in their work, even though it's rarely recognized by Corporate -Good benefits/vacation policy -Career growth: if you know what you want and ask for it, opportunities are available. Your career is what you make of it at Marsh -Austin leaders are smart, positive and progressive -Great place to grow and shape your resume, but not a place for long-term career advancement -Large disconnect between local Austin office and Corporate
Kontras
