Great Work Culture, Always Learning

Client services associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Work with incredibly driven and fun people - Always something to do - A lot of autonomy; you get paid for the work you put in - Huge feedback culture

Cons

To be transparent, the job does have its long days and low points. The typical day is already 8-6, so you have to make sure you're mentally prepared for that kind of workload. Finding work/life balance is a must. Thing is, the leadership team are also people going through growing pains and learning curves. Feedback matters and will often times be heard. Realistically, I don't have any other cons to mention because it usually ends up getting fixed.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. I hear you on the work-life balance; AlphaSights works for the world's top clients, which comes with high expectations and longer hours fall within the nature of the role. To your point, we always seek feedback so we can continue refining ourselves and firm over time — this is a crucial part of success within a high-growth environment. - Sincerely, Sloan Danenhower, SVP - San Francisco

Business Outlook

Pros

High autonomy, high salary (with monthly bonus opportunities based on how well you perform), great training and support from your manager throughout your development/entire years at the company, collaborative team-based environment, fast-paced work/lots of projects at once.

Cons

No real choice in what team you work on which can cause you to work on projects/areas of subjects that you have no real interest in

Thank you for feedback! As you've pointed out, we offer a high performance, high support environment where you can accelerate your learning curve and gain responsibility earlier than in other businesses. This opportunity is paired with early autonomy and specialized trainings to support employees in their time at AlphaSights and beyond. Projects span many industries, regions, and practice areas given the wide range of clients we work with. We staff our employees on teams to best meet client demand and do our best to take employees' interests, skills, and background into consideration. Although some projects may not align with your interest area, each one is an opportunity to learn something new and work outside of your comfort zone. - Sincerely, Sean, COO

We appreciate your honest feedback. We want all employees to feel empowered to reach their full potential with us and beyond. We hire employees who are motivated by commercials and business growth, so we understand that this role isn't for everyone. But I urge you to reach out to your manager and discuss your thoughts with them. - Best, Gabriela, CMO
