Pros

- good early exposure with clients. Immediately given roles in leading and delivering, and don't spend months just shadowing and doing grunt work - relaxed office atmosphere and flexible working - good international travel to clients - interesting projects - from cutting edge science to working with charities on major global issues.

Cons

- work structure and project delivery becomes very repetitive following near identical plans for each Challenge and overall project. After you've done a few, it can get quite dull. - linked with this, there are very few growth opportunities in the company and with a flat hierarchy, it has led to a proportion of staff leaving after two/three years.

Pros

InnoCentive has gone though a major improvement of products as reflected by the latest Forrester Report and enhanced web presence. With renewed emphasis on the commercial marketplace, InnoCentive has landed several new Fortune 1000 clients in US and Europe.

Cons

The innovation management markets have grown slower than many predicted, but InnoCentive is growing again.

Pros

The best part about working at this company is the flexibility of your schedule and having the opportunity to work with many clients on Challenging problems. Incredibly smart employees but the company can't seem to keep them.

Cons

Lacks stability. Poor benefits and compensation. No room for career growth or increased compensation. Company is concerned only with its bottom line, not with the morale of its employees or career development.
