Nice and Smart People, Not So Good Work Life Balance
|
Milliman is a great company with many nice and smart people. It has a high standard for its work for clients. It really helps young actuaries learn and grow. It offers very attractive bonus structure which is directly related to billable hours. The good thing is that you can earn much higher than average salary if you work very hard. The bad thing is that everyone likes (or pretends to like) to work for long hours, which makes you feel guilty if you want to keep work/life balance.

People are nice if you understand the personality of Actuaries they are number conscience 100% of the time.
|
The location and offices are beautifully constructed, people are busy in a positive way not intentionally rude but eager to get the day started and work accomplished. As a Receptionist, I transferred calls 90% of the time while assisting visitors or ordering corporate lunches and some filing.
|
Complimentary Lunches
|
Extremely fast paced environment with very little down-time.

Would not recommend for an Admin
|
My experience as an administrative assistant at Milliman was average. It was a very easy job most days. My day usually consisted of editing word documents, collecting receipts for expenses, ordering lunches for meetings, scheduling travel and appointments for staff and some other miscellaneous tasks. However, there is zero room for growth for administrative staff. Little to no notice is given when you have to stay late to finish a project because the team waited until end of the day to complete it. Some of the staff is very arrogant, unfriendly and look down on admin staff. Some staff treated myself as merely a janitor... asking me to clean the kitchen, complaining if we were out of specific drinks/snacks and asking me to attend to the dirty bathrooms. "Learned helplessness" is the best way I could describe this behavior. Milliman was a very toxic place to be some days. Other admins are catty and shove undesirable tasks to the youngest admin. Don't question the status quo.
The straw that broke the camel's back was when I was told that I needed to train the staff on the new database implementation. My salary was not commensurate to take on that task and I received little to no support from anyone besides our Accounting Manager (also not her job to do this implementation and training). I voiced my concerns over and over to corporate and our internal shareholders on the system errors, lack of staff engagement/participation and my ever-growing workload. I was not met with any sort of compromise. This seems to be a fantastic place to work if you are an Actuary or Consultant, but I would not recommend Milliman to an Administrative Assistant.

Health insurance coverage and 401k was great, 3 weeks PTO accrued each year, lots of free lunches

Learned so much...
|
Worked at Milliman for 11 months. Learned a LOT.
Compensation was great. Benefits too.
On the downside, I didn’t interview with the people I worked with day to day, except for my direct manager and she was told not to ask me any questions because my work at a competitor was too similar and would be proprietary. So my manager and her boss were disappointed in my skill set from day one because they had not adequately participated in my hiring.
In the end, I was put on a performance improvement plan and, though I worked very hard and met everything outlined in the PIP, they let me go anyway. With no severance and right before bonuses were to be distributed.
Still think it could have worked but c’est la vie.
|
Compensation, benefits
|
Mismanaged hiring process, no encouragement, very little training, manager without management experience

Excellent Benefits
|
Business Service is basically a support group. Everything rolls down hill to this group. The only thing they don't do it is cleanup the restrooms behind people..literally No room for advancement and the culture of the company " White is Right". Diversity "NONE".

Benefits

Management, Office Culture, Lack of professional development

Small staff

Milliman is a decent company to work for. Depends on which office you are located in. If you are in a satellite office, things can feel lonely and boring. Chicago and Seattle are nice spots to be in.

Not an actuary not valued
|
It depends who you work for to determine If you matter or not. No consistency across any department or within the same department. No trust of employees from management.

Top Notch Actuarial Consulting Firm
|
As far as Actuarial Consulting firms go, Milliman is top of the line. The compensation is better than one can hope for almost anywhere else, but consulting work is not cut out for everyone. Be prepared to prioritize work above most other life obligations, and take advantage of down time.

Good place to learn
|
Milliman is a good place to learn for young actuaries entering the workplace. For other seasoned veterans, it's a hard place to walk into and be effective without being micromanaged the entire day.
