Pros

Those in management positions go out of their way to help you develop professionally. They frequently ask for feedback about how they can best support embedded employees.

Cons

The pay is low, and they rely 100% on the client to give you a raise. So even if you're a top performer, Concentric is unwilling to go into its own pocket even a little to pay you appropriately. They also revoked a $50 per month phone stipend two weeks before the holidays. It's not a lot of money, but it's certainly the opposite of saying "thank you" to your employees. The right (and smart) thing would have been to tell people in advance and revoke the stipend in January. To top it off, they sent out a Glassdoor survey a few days after we found out about the phone stipend. I've never worked in HR or employee relations, but even I can see the lack of strategic thinking there.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We genuinely value your input and appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns. Compensation Transparency At Concentric, we are committed to clear and transparent communication about compensation. Pay ranges for embedded roles are determined collaboratively, taking into account both client budgets and operational realities. While we work to advocate for competitive compensation and explore every opportunity for increases, there are instances where external and internal constraints make this challenging. That said, Concentric has, in the past, absorbed additional costs to support employees whenever possible. Phone Stipend The $50 phone stipend was initially introduced during the pandemic to assist employees working remotely. As we and the client transitioned back to an office-based environment starting January 3, 2025, it was determined that continuing the stipend was no longer sustainable. We understand that the timing of this notification—particularly during the holidays—may have felt abrupt, and we take this feedback to heart as we work to improve how we communicate such changes in the future. Performance and Pay Increases We recognize how important performance-based increases are to our employees. For embedded positions, these decisions are influenced by both client budgets and internal considerations. While we always strive to reward strong performance and seek opportunities for growth, we acknowledge that certain limitations exist and will continue working to support our employees as best as we can. We regret that this experience left you feeling dissatisfied and are always open to further conversations to ensure you feel heard. Please feel free to reach out to us directly to discuss your concerns further. Thank you again for sharing your perspective. Your feedback helps us improve as we remain committed to supporting our team members. The Concentric Team

Pros

Benefits are 100% company paid for you and your family, 401K, generous vacation, fast-paced, unique projects.

Cons

There has been a decent amount of turnover but that's to be expected with any company in a niche market.

Pros

Nice balance in terms of support. Easy to ask for more and nice that I'm trusted to do my job with autonomy. Everyone supports one another getting the time off they need to recharge. I love that everyday brings on new aspects to the job.

Cons

It's easy to work a lot because the job is never done. However, you put that on yourself. I've never felt that I've been asked to do anything that I didn't agree to.
