Pros

Some colleagues were nice to socialise with and most people were friendly. The staff socials were always the highlight of my time at the organisation.

Cons

Some managers and senior managers need training in how to support their more junior staff. Too many times over my career here did I see new colleagues leave because they received no support from their manager. There is a very high level of staff turnover and I would say the organisation is worse than their American competitors. Gallagher need to be more upfront in their interview process to explain what type of person they're looking for rather than hire and fire. Some staff only last a few days in their role as they're often missold the role and some of us have only stayed as long as we have because we don't want to jump around jobs too often. There are severe issues, such as bullying, in certain teams and you should avoid joining them - Global centre of accounting, Legal Entity Control to name a few. The IT support is poor too. Managers encouraged working until the early hours of the morning which is shocking! Also, salaries are not kept confidential as I was shocked and disgusted to find out that everyone in the team knew how much I received.

Pros

• Good in office dynamic with coworkers for those who worked in office

Cons

• Delayed promotion/raise - you’ll sign a contract in which your raise will be effect but delay it 2 1/2 months • unfair workload - management plays favorite and doesn’t even bother intervening on the issue, rather just gives more work. Multiple times I caught myself doing the work for my peers. • No structure - the office I worked at completely lacked structure where I was shadowing a colleague for 2 weeks before being expected to know what to do • Collision w/ OOO Staff - the out of office staff was very rude at times and because they aren’t in office, management doesn’t push the standards/expectations on them as much as people in office
