Great coworkers and flexibility, but work can be dull - Analyst bei Corporate Insight: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Very supportive, easygoing environment. Interesting material and engaging clients with a lot of technical writing.

There is a slow promotion process

- Easy work. The average employee has a much bigger brain than the work actually requires. That means there’s plenty of time to do other side projects, and decide what you want to do with your life. A fine job for just getting yourself to NYC, if that’s what you’re looking for. - If you’re competent, the individual-contributor promotions come on a close-to-yearly basis, with around a $10k salary increase per promotion. There are 4 levels. So, after 4 years, you will be making $40k more than you started at. Could be better, but not bad in my opinion

- You are not building marketable skills when you’re working here. When looking for another job, you will have little relevant experience and hard skills to rely on, even for in-industry positions like UX or CX roles at the firms CI works with. - Soul-crushing work. Boring, monotonous, uninteresting. Teams produce fairly useless deliverables that are likely not read by the client, in most cases. - Upper management are not particularly smart or knowledgeable. They’ve all just held out the longest. This is especially true for the CEO. A nice guy honestly, but not intelligent. - After you’ve achieved the 4 initial promotions, you are in purgatory until your manager leaves (and managers don’t leave very often, only individual contributors do) or they invent a new position for you. - Turnover is very high as people realize the situation they’re in. People that stick around long enough become unemployable elsewhere since they’ve built very few transferable skills. People see the writing on the wall and try to get out after 2-4 years, typically. - Hourly work tracking is a huge overreach by management Employees are not getting paid enough to pretend that they should be tracking hours like they’re a billable attorney.
