Great option if you can't think of anything else you would rather do

Client services associate

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The salary is comfortable, fun corporate culture, co-workers are great, a lot of PTO

Cons

Managers can be hit-and-miss and will make or break your experience. Commission is also hit-and-miss and quite exaggerated when you're presented with your offer. The PTO is nice, but sometimes too scary to use since you're less likely to hit sales hurdle/commission with every day you take off. Hours are long (8 AM-6 PM) + few hours here and there, If you don't hit sales hurdle the salary is not enough to make these hours worth it.

Great to hear you're enjoying the high levels of autonomy we provide. Like with many roles, there is bound to be some repetition at times but with this comes the ability to improve. This is how you can master your role and be ready to take on increasing levels of responsibility. Thank you for your continued contribution to AlphaSights! Thanks, Sloan, SVP, San Francisco

Thanks for taking the time to leave us an honest review. The Associate role is an entry-level role and involves intense, high-frequency project work. Repetition is critical to learning and improving in any domain (professional, sports, music etc.) — it takes hours and practice to get good at something. We offer competitive benefits and remuneration, and expect our employees to deliver results when needed to offer our clients outstanding service. Thanks, Sloan Danenhower, SVP-San Francisco
