Coleman Research Reviews

Pros

Coleman Research was an amazing company with even better people. My colleagues were insightful, thoughtful and willing to lend a helping hand at any time. While it was a hybrid job (half virtual, half in person), it felt like I became very close with everyone rather quickly. They helped me learn and grow at a fast rate and made me feel accepted and a valued member of the team. Management found the right balance of being professional and personable. I would advise anyone looking to work in the expert network space to look no farther than Coleman Research. Nothing but great experiences and great people at this company!

Cons

I honestly can't think of any downsides to working here. The pay is fair (about $52,000 annual with bonus opportunities) and the work flow is easy to learn and enjoyable on a daily basis. The only thing I can think of is they have a 9-6pm work day and 9-5pm on Fridays. I personally would rather an 8-5pm in order to get off a little earlier, or even the classic 9-5pm. But regardless, time flies when your enjoying yourself and that is not a problem at Coleman Research!

Pros

Chill work environment with diversified employees.

Cons

Pay structure changes overtime to decrease the bonus paid to employees

Pros

You can work from home

Cons

Every. Other. Piece. If you are interviewing or a current Coleman employee, ask how BASE pay is determined, which regions are paid what, and the explanation. You will usually get hit with "cost of living" but with that same thought process they won't and don't provide a "cost of living" increase. Or touch their pay structure. RECENT COLLEGE GRADS (Who are targeted)! There a hundreds of better places to get your entry level experience. Go to one of them. The company's head of Talent Acquisition even left.... There are your signs

Pros

The people are great and there are lots of opportunities to grow within your role if you are open to them.

Cons

There are periods of high turnover, and the work culture is like you are still in school. There is no flexibility in your working hours, and you frequently work late and are required to work a 12 hour shift every month at the associate level. You feel like you're chained to your desk and, even as a significant individual contributor, feel like there is zero flexibility in your daily working scheduled.

Pros

- Handful of good colleagues

Cons

- Pay is very low and commission restructuring is going to cause high performers to take a pay cut ** If you are a Coleman Employee: DO NOT listen to them when they instruct you to “keep your salary a secret”. That is a glaring red flag. Any company who is paying their employees fairly and has sound reasoning behind discrepancies in pay would encourage salary transparency instead of discouraging it. Talk about your salary with your coworkers. You have every right to do so. - No longer work from home (despite not having enough spaces for all of their employees to come in because this company is based out of WeWork) - Lied about unlimited PTO - HR is aware of issues with management, including managers bullying employees and creating a hostile work environment. Despite this, these managers are still employed while many of their subordinates left the company due to this treatment. - Laid off many employees and looks like they are trying to drive more turnover with new policies

Pros

Really collaborative space and company provides all up to date technology resources even for remote workers

Cons

A lot of the staff works remote, so not too much of an in-person experience

Pros

Good people to work with

Cons

Extremely high turn over. Plan to work consistently after normal business hours. Some managers have never been managers before and do not have skills to lead a team nor the support from the company to get up to speed on what's expected of a manager

Pros

Great people to work with, fully remote

Cons

Can be very busy at times, however this is expected.

Pros

Great Team Flexible Fun Work Good Pay Fun Environment Great Managers Work from home

Cons

No Cons at the moment, team and staff have been great. everyone is so supportive and helpful and working as a team for a united goal!

Pros

It's a good first job out of college. You'll learn a lot of basic skills like project management, communication, and organization skills.

Cons

Job is very metrics based. They expect you to hit a certain goal every month. Not necessarily a bad thing if hitting your metrics motivate you but can be very stressful given the current market lull
