Overworked and underpaid - Anonymous employee Hanley Wood Market Intelligence Employee Review

Great people, good for entry level positions, and room to grow

pay enough for all of the traveling required

The best aspect of this job is that most of the research positions allow you to work from home. The company has employees working from home all across the nation and set up all meetings over the internet so there is really no need to ever go into an office. Additionally, the management is fairly easy going and understanding of small schedule changes.

What's bad about this company largely has to do with the recession as there has been almost no opportunity for advancement either in pay or position within the last three years unless somebody vacates a position. There was a period of overall discouragement as most employees saw reduced wages and significantly reduced hours for most non management positions. Most Research associates were full time at around 15-17 per hour full time but two years ago were reduced to 25 hrs per week at $12 per hour. While there haven't been significant reductions since 2009, most see this position as a resume builder rather than a long term career position.
