Pros

Very good product base (not the delivery), expert in the energy space. People are friendly, and work-life balance is good (not much to do).

Cons

Rigid business structure, IT is very behind the times therefore everything is manual (they have not heard of digital marketing), managed by old-time employees that have not seen how businesses are run these days, and will not change/ innovate.

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
