Commentary

Happiness (Pros)
Great people and small collaborative environment. Incredibly brilliant Senior Analysts. My team was excellent.
Sadness (Cons)
Horrible pay and work/life balance incredibly poor. The quality of teams varies significantly. The "assistant training program" is a fraud.
Tips to Senior Management
There needs to be more communication between sales and research senior management. The research management team has some excellent people, but a few are horrible (need to get rid of people who do not help promote the company or the younger individuals).

Overall Ranking

Overall Ranking is a score from 1 star (very bad) to 5 stars (excellent) generated based on the Company Reviews of current and former employees at this company, taking everything into account.

The number you see in the middle of the donut pie chart is the simple average of these scores. If you hover over the various sections of the donut, you will see the % breakdown of each score given.

The percentile score in the title is calculated across the entire Company Database and uses an adjusted score based on Bayesian Estimates (to account for companies that have few reviews). Simply put, as a company gets more reviews, the confidence of a "true score" increases so it is pulled closer to its simple average and away from the average of the entire dataset.
