C&B is just like any other spec job within HR such as L&D, OE, CDI, HRIS, BP etc. although it is more Finance / investment based I think. The reason why many HR ppl dream of getting into spec is because the pay is easily 2.5-3x of the normal generalist ops job for the same level.
Mercer / Towers considered mid range consultancies. If you can get in and last for a few years, no matter what career prospect is much better than joining a entry level generalist HR executive job. My uni classmate now working in a MNC as OD specialist drawing 6.5k after 3 years.
