Pros
- Some of the people are great to work with. - Decent pay, above big 4 accounting firms (but still below market rate for analytics/data science) - Quantium day (a kind of company wide holiday/party)
Cons
- Some of the statistical work is dodgy/unethical. Clients don't know any better and so can't question the work. - Poor training. The technical staff there just don't know what they are doing. Quantium is far behind the rest of the world when it comes to analytics/data science. - The majority of the people there can't program. This is kind of ridiculous given that their website says they are data scientists. What kind of data scientist can't program? - There are far too many managers who have no technical background. How can you possibly manage technical people when you have no idea what they do? - If you leave the company you are essentially un-employable by another firm as you leave with no useful skills.
