PitchBook reviews

PitchBook is refusing to be flexible with their WFH policy despite "embracing and driving change" being a core tenant. They will continue to lose a lot of good people for this. It makes no sense as we are hitting records in revenue during WFH. The CEO makes all the rules without listening to the people who have clearly voiced a need for flexibility and have the success story to back up the request. Also they have a huge diversity issue and despite pouring money into "looking into it" we saw no tangible results/change. This leads to big problems in company culture and what is celebrated.

- Job descriptions are deceptive and misleading. Your day to day work will not resemble the posted job description. - You are micromanaged down to the minute on the research team. You are literally required to email your manager and your manager's manager how you spent every minute of your day. Clearly management does not trust employees to use time effectively. You are required to track the amount of emails sent, phone calls made, lines of data entered. The entire process is mindnumbing. Amazing that as many people stick around as long as they do. - Benefits are not outstanding in any way, par for the course in the industry. - Office "perks" are not out of the ordinary for any tech company. - Passive aggressive emails will be sent anytime the team laughs too much during workday, this has happened 3 times in the past year. But don't worry the company values are "Make it fun", just not during working hours... - Revolving door of coworkers. Get used to training people how to do things you hate doing yourself. When new hires come on, managers will ask you to micromanage them as well. - Most research positions do not have transferable skills outside of company. Unless you want to continue your career in data entry! - Research Department moral is incredibly low. Most employees bond by talking about how they want to quit. - Not a good place to work at if you do not enjoy consuming alcohol. - Entire management team is white and male (big surprise huh?) - You will be told to "focus on focus" and be forced to keep a straight face as that is a legitimate company value. - The best people here leave, leaving the lowest common denominator to get kicked up the ladder. They specifically do not hire any management level positions in Research as anyone with experience would be appalled at paltry pay, poor communication styles and soul-crushing low moral. - You know this place is not a "great place to work at" when the recruiters don't even stay a year. - After consistently telling management you are underpaid, after seeing numerous coworkers quit and talk about how much better it is elsewhere, and after offering many thoughtful/legitimate ways to improve employee moral, you will be painted as a whiny, demanding millennial who just uses glassdoor to complain.
