Pros

Aon offers diverse work experiences and access to industry resources, providing opportunities for skill development.

Cons

I worked at Aon Global Risk Services for a year and a half, and unfortunately, my experience was very negative due to what I perceived as racial and gender discrimination. As a Latina woman in a predominantly white male environment, I felt marginalized and unsupported. Very few women were working there, which was glaringly evident in how I was treated. I often found myself without substantial work assignments, making me feel like an outsider. The lack of communication and support from my colleagues was disheartening. Instead of receiving guidance and encouragement, I was talked down to and ignored. I had to strive to keep up with my tasks constantly, but it felt like I was doing it all alone without any assistance from my team. To make matters worse, I was laid off from the blue on the day I was leaving to visit a client for work. Adding insult to injury, just two weeks later, they posted my job again. This was not just about the workload; it was about the broader issue of discrimination against women and Latinas. The company must seriously address these issues to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all employees.
