"I've been with Watson Wyatt and then Towers Watson for exactly seven years and in all those years I have been a part of the organization. I have not only grown in my career but also as a person. I've dealt with issues professionally and personally and the company not only helped out financially but also extended tools and training to excel in the position I was in. The only reason I left was because my position was outsourced, otherwise I would have been retiring with the same company."
