Pros

Flexible work schedule. Work from home

Cons

If you are fresh out of college and have no real world corporate experience, this is a great job start. Work there for three to five years and then look for a better salary, less stress, and more pay. If you are experienced and have other life and corporate experience, stay unemployed before saying yes to AON. I was warned from previous employees of AON now called Alight. I thought, "No way" it can't be true. I should have heed their warning as I am in this review. My manager comes into town. Not one time did the manager come over to our side of the building to greet us not knowing who they were or to start a relationship with their employees. Don't ask questions or management thinks you're stupid. Don't question procedures even though procedures are old, unproven, or so broad the procedure is worthless. AON or Alight is full of chiefs and not enough indians and the indians believe they are chiefs. This review comes from a person who has 15 years as an analyst with two companies.

Pros

Loved my colleagues! They knew the business and helped me learn a lot. I would not be at the place in my career without them. There were also carrier options in choosing benefits which I liked.

Cons

Management was awful. My boss never provided any formal training (I never did the new employee orientation because I was expected to start renewing accounts immediately), and when I expressed concerns about the program and the systems, he completely passed it off as an annoyance. I never knew exactly what my role was despite asking for more clearly defined roles, so I ended up doing everything. We were expected to work like robots, including through holidays, since management only cared about revenue. I also felt that there were holes in the ethics of the program in terms of how renewals were handled. Once I realized that the program and management were unwilling to change, I decided it was time to leave. Aon is so big, that sometimes management doesn't see problems with colleague morale and executives need to pay attention to that. I would have stayed if I was able to transfer to another business unit. I think that your manager defines your experience at Aon, and my boss was one of the worst people I've ever worked for.
