Acumen reviews

When company was smaller, there was a lot of opportunity to learn from senior programmers. You have an opportunity to work with very bright kids from top-notch schools across the country, including harvard, cal, stanford, hopkins, u mich, usc, swarthmore graduates Training program exists for new-hires to learn SAS programming Nearly everyone is very friendly and willing to help you learn within your department Nice health insurance plan, including dental, vision and medical Three weeks vacation accrued each year If you are lucky you can end up working in an excellent department with very knowlegeable managers that love to teach the tricks of their trade - very helpful and appreciate and reward quality work Opportunity to work as many hours as you want, allowing you to prove you can take on a lot of work, if that's your sort of thing, as it is mine.

Acumen has a lot of potential. The company does very interesting and necessary work for the health field. However, the company's internal structure and practices diminish the morale of the employees and, in turn, effectiveness of the company. -I believe the people you work will heavily affect how you assess your time at Acumen. My overall experience was pretty good given the right people (fair, professional, intelligent, etc).
