• Chance to work with smart and dedicated analysts • Decent benefits package for a small company • Ability to work on multiple projects and gain valuable experience rapidly • Very interesting projects • Physically comfortable office space

• Very difficult to work with management on day to day basis due to micromanaging style. Managers would check in frequently on small tasks, even as often as 3-4 times per day, even about selecting colors for spreadsheet tables. • Expectations were constantly changing – far beyond the iterative nature of analyses. • Employees’ input into discussions was not valued or utilized unless that input was in agreement with management. • Experienced a revolving door of employees. • Analysts had limited interaction with clients. • Management talked a lot about company values – transparency, integrity – but it rarely felt like these principles were being put into practice by the managers themselves. • Efforts to encourage morale and excitement among the analysts felt forced because of the lack of effort to make actual changes to project processes and practices.
