Diversity & Inclusion

Towers Watson is committed to developing a diverse workforce and creating an inclusive, empowering environment for all associates. Our aim is to build a workplace that attracts the most talented people and enables them to develop to their fullest potential.

In today’s highly competitive marketplace, we believe that our success hinges on how well we understand and leverage the differences that each associate brings to the workplace. Our innovative solutions come to life through constructive dialogue among respected colleagues whose unique perspectives – both in business and in life – contribute to our reputation as one of the world’s leading consulting firms.

Total Rewards

The Towers Watson global Total Rewards philosophy aligns with our business strategy and workforce strategies. It supports our vision and values, and provides guidance for program design, delivery and communication.

 Our philosophy includes three key components:

  • Total cash compensation that reflects a “pay for performance” approach including salary and bonus for bonus-eligible associates or salary and other statutory compensation for other associates, and long-term incentives for our most senior associates who make strategic contributions to the success of the business over time
  • Competitive, market-aligned benefits that provide associates with essential coverages while allowing for individual choices where appropriate
  • Career development opportunities that encourage associates to grow by seeking challenging work assignments, coaching, and company-supported training and education

Together, these components foster a collaborative, team-oriented work environment that offers Towers Watson associates the flexibility and opportunity to thrive in a highly professional atmosphere, and to receive rewards and recognition for their contributions.
