Pros

Extremely intellectually stimulating environment Your peers are the experts in their domains You help clients solve their biggest challenges, and their gratitude is immensely rewarding. Work from home is nice

Cons

Gratitude from the clients doesn’t translate into high pay, with most analysts making less than they would elsewhere. Retention among the analysts is a problem, but management seems only focused on client retention. Metrics, metrics, metrics - the focus on management by metrics that have very little ability to show any material causation to client outcomes causes perverse behaviors. Have people work from home but not letting them expense any internet or phone costs is short sighted.

Pros

- Great health benefits and salary - A few great colleagues - Talk a lot about inclusion but this has slowly been falling to the wayside - I have been struggling the write this for some time as I wish there were more positive things to say

Cons

- Leadership that does not see anyone or anything but themselves - The company has been imploding for a while lying to the public and the street - Killing off the research model has been the final decision that has made many decide to look elsewhere (including me) - Lay off after lay off has created a culture of fear
