Pros

Really loved my co-workers, many people (myself included) created lasting friendships outside of work. The platform is great and the industry just keeps growing, providing a lot of opportunity. Compared to a lot of places I've worked, this culture values speed. I felt behind from the day I started, but working at a fast pace is something I enjoy. Great deal of time off (both PTO and holidays).

Cons

Covid had everyone working remote which was taking away from a lot of the fun social happy hours and perks.

Pros

Small team environment and every voice gets heard. So bring your ideas forward as you will have plenty of freedom to evolve how business gets done. Although a very small organization it is very modern with its methodology and technology. There has been several comments about a work hard – play hard atmosphere. I can't express how true that is at Alight! Often you will be encouraged to come to events to have some food and sit and talk with coworkers for a short while. I have seen the Founders make it a point to walk the floor and say hello to everyone. That is something you never see nowadays.

Cons

It's a small company and you have to work very hard!  This is what made it so much fun to roll out new processes that streamlined effort. But you have to be of that stuff that takes this on with the right mindset.

Thank you for your review! No one was prepared for 2020 for sure. It wasn't the year we had hoped for but we've made it through and hope we can all get back to adding more "play hard" to our daily lives soon!

Pros

They have a lot of fun around the office. Nerf gun wars, paint balling, Wednesday happy hours, free booze and snacks in the kitchen -- They have spent a lot of effort to make the office a "fun" place to be. I genuinely liked my co-workers and team. The analytics technology space is supremely interesting,

Cons

Pay is generally 10%-20% lower than market average. I never got the impression they knew why I was hired, or what I was supposed to do. There was zero planning for my arrival, no training, and no one on any team seemed to understand what I was hired to do. When I presented ideas, or wanted to discuss concerns I was usually dismissed, ignored, or rejected out of hand. Even worse, the office seemed to be a constant game of musical chairs, as people bounced from department to department in the name of reorganization. There is a huge amount of turnover for a company their size -- they turned over a quarter of their workforce in the year I was there. After a year of being unable to make any real progress towards my goals or the team's goals, I decided to cut my losses and go somewhere I could get the support I needed, the freedom to contribute in a meaningful way, and ultimately grow my career.

Thank you for your review, the Alight management team highly values feedback and is always looking to improve our environment and culture. As a small company in a rapidly-evolving industry, we move so fast we may not always get every detail right and will examine our onboarding practice more closely. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the environment and your co-workers!
