Pros

Compared to regional companies, the salary is acceptable. One of the plus advantages is the number of holidays per year of 25 (that can change because it was acquired by Verisk). You work in a multinational environment and depending on your boss, they have a flexible scheme to work.

Cons

There is no guidance from your superiors, they expect you to learn by yourself or by asking with no guideline to follow their procedures. The annual benefits are average and they consider you as promotional material if you wear out yourself by working extra hours. It is very difficult to get promoted.

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
