Pros

- good internal mobility: I started as an intern and made it to a level 1 analyst after 6 months, as have other interns along with me. This seems to be a path management is willing to pursue as they were open to hearing me advocate for my promotion and supported my initiative - colleagues are generally very happy to help, asking questions is always encouraged and senior employees do their best to guide and help you; there is an emphasis on professional development and continuous learning - great office culture, a lot of the employees are on the younger side so lots of laughs and good vibes - there are also pretty cool benefits such as hybrid work schedules and flexible time off. I could also work remotely for a little while visiting home in another country, which was a great experience Overall, as a first job out of University, working at Meltwater so far has been a positive experience. I'm learning a lot on the way corporate functions, have some pretty cool perks to enjoy, all the while using this experience and opportunity to upskill and build myself.

Cons

- lots of repetitive tasks so at some point becomes a little monotonous - internal comms aren't as great as they can be, horizontally and vertically, there is a general sense that things get lost in translation - salaries are somewhat competitive, yet in an increasingly inflationary economy and city I definitely feel it can be improved, especially considering the multinational status of the company - could be a bit more diverse, although management has been working on it lately - the work itself generally isn't very important/impactful in the grander scheme of things

Pros

The product is cool and if properly onboarded customers will get value from it. Coworkers are fairly social If you are new to sales would be a good place to learn the basics

Cons

Probably the cheapest company I have ever worked for. Benefits are below standard, they changed the commission plan every year I was there so that you would make less money, and you are expected to share hotel rooms when you travel. Look up Meltwater on Reddit or LinkedIn. They are known for very aggressive sales tactics which you will be forced to implement on your customers. A culture of micromanagement that comes from the top down. Virtually no avenue for promotion unless you are willing to move or get lucky and someone leaves.
