      Pros

      Smart and nice colleagues, friendly work environment and good company culture

      Cons

      The management squeeze the people below as much as they can. Super long hours for project work due to under staffing/funding, reduced benefits, no annual pay increase based on merit, hiring freeze, and less and less growth opportunities. Workload keeps getting more while head count is being cut. The management doesn’t want to add head count because it will make things look “inefficient”. What makes it worse is even when the team back fills a senior staff that has left, the opening is usually a junior staff position. Poor hardworking junior staff never get to move up. By saving a little cost in this way it lowers morale deeply and doesn’t help keep good employees.

      Good company but lots of recent changes

      Pros

      There are good commuter benefits, and 37.5 hour work weeks as opposed to 40. There are interesting corporate events with great speakers. The vast majority of employees are nice and friendly to work with. Fantastic building downtown when we are in office. Most people have the opportunity to do 1 day a week wfh (non-covid, currently entirely wfh). The company is making changes in the name of having a "commercial mindset" and some of that is good. For example, the shift to python/R is giving great opportunities to learn.

      Cons

      Recent changes to the compensation structure (dropping the merit bonus at year end for lower associates, removing the base 2% 401k contribution but leaving the 6% match), the corporate culture can be toxic at times (overly competitive within the company)
