A very different company from what it used to be (in a bad way for employees)

Analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Company is well known in the upstream industry, not so much at the other end

Cons

No training (on the job is not training boss. It is call working), over-emphasis on English communication rather than what is more important - industry/domain expertise, staff restructuring going on but it is clear that people who are doing the work are being culled yet many at the higher level (drawing huge salaries but with connection all the way to the top) were left untouched.

Energy sapping culture

Human resources manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Has the potential to be really good

Cons

Has weak and uninspiring leadership which starts at the top. Culture of fear and harassment in HR driven from CHRO at Verisk - you are either in the inner circle or out of it - 'my way or the highway' approach to HR leadership (many excellent HR people have left or been exited because of this).
