Pros

The people who work with are great here and always make your day better

Cons

This is essentially a sales job, which if that's what you're looking for then this job is for you. The work is not engaging at all along with the hours being long. If you want to learn real transferrable skills then don't work here. Everyone leaves this job in under a year or so

SVP Europe Thank you for your review. I'm so pleased that you acknowledge how great the people are that make up AlphaSights, I completely agree with you! In terms of the role and skill development, you're right there in that it presents a great opportunity to hone your commercial, sales, and human-based skills which we believe to be highly valuable and transferable experiences, especially for emerging leaders. - Sincerely, Dom

Thanks for taking a minute to leave a review! I'm glad to hear you would recommend AlphaSights and that you find our pay competitive. We've taken a number of initiatives to improve Work Life Harmony this year and encourage all team members to discuss a Wellbeing Focus Plan with their leader. The pace and work at AlphaSights are inherently demanding because we are a client service business. However, we want people to establish healthy habits of integrating work and the rest of our lives. Over the last six weeks in SF we've tested more flexible late afternoons and will likely continue these as long as performance remains strong. Thanks for sharing and please feel free to bring any suggestions forward in real life so we can explore them! Sloan Danenhower SF VP

Thanks for taking time to leave a review and while I'm glad to hear you find our people amazing and caring, I'm sorry you find our culture one of micromanagement. Our goal is a culture of high autonomy and high alignment. If you haven't already, I'd encourage you to share this feedback with your manager. We operate in a client service business and our roles are challenging and demanding. With this in mind we aim to provide everyone with flexibility so they can structure their workflow as they see fit. We don't always hit the nail on the head, but we continue to make significant improvements in SF (piloting flexible late afternoons for example) and are open to additional suggestions if you have any (other) ideas to bring forward.
