Supportive teammates but issues with accountability and favoritism - Anonymous employee eighty2i Employee Review

Incredible exposure to senior executives and investors early in your career Steep learning curve that accelerates technical finance, modeling, and strategy skills Entrepreneurial culture that rewards ownership and initiative Supportive leadership team willing to mentor and provide feedback Strong exit opportunities into PE, VC, or C-suite roles

Fast-paced environment with demanding hours at times

Pros: - Learning opportunities are very accessible at 82i and you get quick and direct feedback on your work both from teammates and from clients - virtual culture is strong! It can be difficult to feel like a team when working virtually, but because remote work is built into the DNA of 82i, the culture is focused on creating touchpoints and building in opportunities to strengthen relationships with a focus on virtual settings. - The work I do here feels meaningful, especially when interacting with clients and seeing the intense positive changes the work I do can create in their organizations

Remote work can be difficult to adjust to, especially after coming from in-person settings in the past. Due to clients having to juggle lots of different priorities, it can be difficult to stay organized and priorities often change rapidly, so you need to always be 'switched on' & ready to think on your feet and adjust.
