Pros

Colleagues are nice and most of them, very talented, but they all want to leave the firm.

Cons

Kroll CRD is, to put it bluntly, a horrible place to work. It’s the textbook definition of a toxic workplace. There’s a normalized culture of exploiting researchers until they burn out. There’s zero empathy and understanding from management. You have 10 days a year of PTO, but even during those few days, they will assign work. If you complain or push back, they’ll simply tell you there’s nothing they can do about it. Researchers are disposable. Collateral damage. They’ll say the hours are “standard” for the industry, but as someone who has worked in the industry for years, I can tell you, that’s not the case. Everyone works weekends and evenings at Kroll CRD. Yes, everyone. And don’t be surprised if you get work calls to your personal phone number on a holiday. That’s just normal at Kroll. These are some of the reasons why turnover has skyrocketed in the past few years. People at Kroll live to work. Associates are underpaid, overworked, and per their own Kroll survey data, 80% of them are actively looking for jobs elsewhere. Stay away from Kroll. If you’re interested in working in the investigations industry, there are *so many* better companies out there.
