      A great opportunity--big upsides but significant challenges

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits, PTO, Good Salary, plus monthly commission and also enrollment in company "growth plan" (somewhat like RSU at public companies); Specifically for the Manager Development Program, there are clear benchmarks for promotion within a year (moving on to leading a team + significant salary bump), but in general there are also great internal and external exit opportunities for the Client Service Role; You get to work alongside extremely capable people and meet some very interesting experts in the day-to-day work of recruiting advisors for the clients; In the SF office, the support system is really one of a kind and management is willing to do most anything they can to support you; You have a lot of autonomy to develop a huge range of highly transferable/in-demand skills thoroughly and quickly (project management, negotiation, recruitment, account management, etc.).

      Cons

      80+% of the company is straight out of college/has never worked anywhere else, which makes for an interesting dynamic--there's also the typical corporate lack of diversity (particularly racial and economic) that is talked about constantly but needs clearer actioning on; The hours are quite long, which wasn't unexpected but was different from advertised in interview process (10 hour days are the norm/average, and that's when it's not exceptionally busy), especially as you're in the earlier months of learning to do the job; Probation period (3 month and 6 month "integration process") that isn't mentioned before hiring and which does lead to termination in cases; Accepting the job comes with big limitations on investing in stock market (rightly so due to the nature of the work) that should have been explained during the offer stage rather than after hiring.

      I appreciate you leaving this detailed review. It is great to read that you feel supported in your role and that you're enjoying our financial compensation package. We give our employees responsibility and autonomy early on, and offer them support so they learn quickly. This can feel like a lot of pressure at times but when employees are promoted or move on from AlphaSights, they have immense experience and knowledge under their belt. Thank you for sharing your experiences regarding the interview/offer process — we will take your feedback onboard as we look to improve role clarity for candidates. Thanks, Sloan, SVP, San Francisco
