Pros

Work/life balance. Helpful coworkers. Supportive and nice culture.

Cons

Compensation, career growth (reaches stagnation in 2 years), lack of new ideas and projects, senior management still struggling to figure out what the company should be like in next 5 years. A conflict within company whether to project itself as a data company or research or consulting firm. Company severely lacking deep talent at low and mid levels.

Pros

It's ok to learn more about the energy industry. However, there are much better places to do that.

Cons

Lot of people leaving the company (From Manager level and below). Directors / VPs stay forever. It is a Management Consulting "wanna be" Far away from Tier 1 and 2 Firms The Bonus scheme is a "Black Box" It does not have a meritocratic culture Career opportunities are very restricted

Challenged by Change

Pros

Culture of personal respect and courtesy, benefits, decent distribution of age groups across the employee population, smart people. Challenging and interesting work.

Cons

Run like a university, not a business. The "Deans" with long tenure and established relationships have created silos and cliques that will be difficult but necessary to break down to continue growth at the pace we would like to see. Technology treated as a cost center instead of a business necessity; pay below industry averages in the US market. Too much value for form over function.
