Coleman Research Reviews

Pros

The company culture is really very friendly. The culture committee works hard to make sure we have fun events going on. You learn something new every day here and it makes coming to work interesting.

Cons

It isn't really a con, but depending on the job you're looking for it could be considered one. You are constantly learning new things so don't expect to become a pro immediately. You have to work and ask questions every single day. I personally love this because it keeps me on my toes, but I know it isn't for everyone.

Advice to Management

Keep listening to your staff. I can tell that people care and I feel like I can be heard - which I really appreciate!

Pros

Good way to get post-college work experience with exposure to a variety of different industries.

Cons

None to report at this time.

Pros

Good Commision, Great Work Environment, Nice People

Cons

Not much upward mobility after a few years

Advice to Management

Invest in good people and mitigate turnover

Pros

Senior Management genuinely cares about staff. Good training program. Vibrant culture and great benefits.

Cons

Younger workforce creates some management challenges but lots of things being done to address these issues.

Pros

This is a good place to work straight out of college to gain experience and build up basic skills (communication, time management, etc.) Good work life balance. You sometimes will have to work after hours but for the most part your work doesn't go outside of the office. The people make this place an enjoyable work environment. Perks are decent and if you put in the work you can make some good commission.

Cons

The job is very repetitive. You will be doing the same thing everyday for 8 hours and sometimes it feels like a heads down culture. You will get bored and aggravated. Middle management needs more training and upper management doesn't seem to have a clear vision. They say they are all about their people, but I never bought into that philosophy.

Advice to Management

Listen to your lower employees. Sometimes you need to accept the fact that an account isn't as productive or valuable anymore. If you want to retain your employees, give them more career opportunities. Not everyone wants to be a manager but there is no where else for them to go.

Pros

- The ability to engage with high level executives at a variety of different companies one-on-one over the phone, via email, & in-person. - Gaining in-depth knowledge of what's going on currently at hedge funds, asset management firms, consulting firms, etc. from working with analysts/consultants on their research projects. -Company culture is great! Not everyone has the same background in finance/business,...

Cons

-Very competitive since competing with other expert network firms, so you need to work quickly. -Juggling lots of projects at once, so you need to have great time management skills. -Involves a lot of outreach, so you need to have good people skills.

Pros

Cooperative environment, hardworking teammates, awesome corporate culture, and you learn a lot on the job.

Cons

Can't think of any at the moment

Pros

It is good experience straight out of college.

Cons

Becomes repetitive after one year.
