Pros

- Smart and easy-going colleagues, who are willing to share with you any "job tips" or knowledge per se - Management who would be very open to feedback - Nature of the work is already a huge plus: you've got to be involved in different industries and different countries and different types of analysis. Steep learning curve within the first few months! - Long holidays

Cons

- Work is cyclical: sometimes you are so busy you have to work late at night or even the weekends and sometimes you are simply doing very boring administrative works for the whole day(s) - Compensation could be improved, and yes other perks - Needs more bonding between management and staff

Pros

Great company to work for. Company cares about people on the personal level and are willing to help you grow.

Bonus scheme isn't the motivator they think it can be.

Pros

You spend 98% of your time working with and communicating with your client employer. If that's a good fit, it's wonderful.

Cons

If the client terminates your role, it's likely you'll be laid off by Control Risks - unless they have a very specific role in-house or with another client to offer to you. If you're laid off by CR, it's unlikely you'll be paid severance.
