Pros

Decent salary, if not above market average; Work load is rather ok as compared with banking and trading; Nice office location in most of cases; Used to have a lot of nice people although not any more; A good step stone for junior pros like graduates

Cons

In order to get promotion, you need to be sophisticated - stab others if he/she stands in your way; bit of "makeup" to make yourself better looking to the public. In conclusion, do not stay if you're an decent human being. Supporting functions are doggy - HR does nothing but report your dress code type of stuff to senior management; Industry expertise is not valued here as the fact does not matter - it's all about a story-telling business model; tech infrastructure is shockingly outdated; no focus on ethnicity, hence no respect on individuals who do not fit in the "stab and kill" group.

Pros

Good benefits, smart co-workers, global perspective and a strong brand are advantages to working here. We have strong support from our new owner Verisk.

Cons

Top down, controlling management is not appropriate for a company the size we have grown to be. Layer upon layer of middlevel management swells our costs while hiring freezes handicap our efforts to continue to produce quality work.
