Pros

There are many smart people in the company. Friendly, knowledgeable and supportive but it is not enough.

Cons

Package is not competitive. No clear way to progress. The grades are given randomly with some employees undervalued. Although there's more diversity, these people are mostly at the bottom. Some people in higher management (white male) are creating a toxic environment: Bullying, Power games, ego and arrogance. People who sabotage collaboration and change initiatives. No wonder a lot of people choose to leave.

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
