Pros

Nice people, interesting work, flexible with wfh

Cons

Budget cuts every other month, and low compensation. Senior management is trying to squeeze every penny out of us to make the balance sheet look better so the PE can offload us for a higher price in a year or two.

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.
