CLS Strategies Reviews

This was the most miserable I have ever been. The company is completely understaffed, so a ton of responsibility falls on the associates, even before they know what they're doing. The turnover rate is also incredibly high for such a small office. There is no HR department or formal system to file complaints or ask questions. I was berated, disrespected, and at best ignored by upper management. I was called dumb by one of the managing directors for improperly formatting an excel sheet. I was expected to work until 7-8pm most nights. You are told you must have work notifications on at all times and are expected to respond to emails at all hours. The associate level is ultra-competitive, creating a really awkward divide between the associates who were previously interns and the newer people. The entire staff is very clique-y and walking into the office feels like walking into a high school cafeteria. If you find yourself at Vision360 (their new name after the Washington Post article and plethora of other scandals) GET OUT!

No room for advancement beyond MD unless you can bring in business. No diversity, no female leadership
