Has been mostly a great place to work

Project Manager II (Current Employee)
Plano, TX

I have been working at Research Now full-time for more than 7 years

ProsWorking with clients is satisfying. Most of the upper management is good and cares about the business and the employees.

ConsIt really depends on which team/business unit you are on. Let's just say half of the client service area is well managed.

Advice to Senior ManagementTo the less well managed client services side I'd say just let your people do their jobs and stop working so hard to micromanage. The other team does it right and the results speak for themselves.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

It is a fast paced, professional environment that requires a lot of focus from its employees.

ProsDepending on department, there can be a lot of flexibility in schedule. The benefits are pretty good. Though the company is large, it is still a very social environment. There is a 'secondement' program which allows individuals to move for a few months to various office locations around the world.

ConsThere aren't many opportunities for growth within the company itself.
Very performance driven, often at the cost of employee work/life balance.
Salaries are generally lower than market.

Advice to Senior ManagementShare the wealth... create a structure that provides for more movement, and personal development.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Great work environment

Anonymous Employee (Former Employee)

I worked at Research Now

ProsHorizontal organization, everybody is very easy to reach

ConsDifficult to ramp, if your direct boss is selfish, you have nothing to do

Advice to Senior ManagementSet clear and feasible goals, be realistic with price positioning against competitors, you're the best in the industry but others are just much cheaper.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
