Pros

Strengths based culture, great research

Cons

Relationship based culture, if you don't know any one in the big names, then you are just a low hanging fruit. No consistent policy, lot of politics and RETALIATION(though claims about No Retaliation policy). Bad managers who set you up for failure if you are not their favorite, so you either leave or are laid off.

Gallup Response

Thank you for sharing your opinion. As you noted, we are a relationship based culture. From studying high performing teams, we know that the best performance and engagement is driven from teams that have great relationships. That said, we do not believe that a relationship with certain individuals in positions of influence is how you get work done. Performance and outcomes are always a focus for success. We definitely want to encourage employees to voice their concerns through their manager, other managers, or our bi-annual anonymous surveys. We wish you nothing but the best in your future.

Pros

Managers are outstanding. They truly respect and care about their employees. They make you feel comfortable sharing your opinions. They empower you to take action. The culture is fantastic. Fellow employees are wonderful to work with. Everyone takes their role seriously. You feel part of a village and want to contribute. You get to do what you do best! The mission and purpose make this feel not so much like a job, more like a way of life.

Cons

As is true for many companies, there are a lot of changes needed to be competitive in this current environment. Working through the changes can be bumpy at times. It is worth it to voice concerns and be part of the solution.

Pros

1. Genuine intellectual autonomy with real institutional backing behind you 2, A research heritage spanning nearly a century that raises the bar on everything you produce. I've worked with Nobel Laureates and many other top minds. 3. The nicest smart people I've encountered anywhere, drawn from all over the world; and that's held true across nearly 30 years 4. Treated like a responsible adult from day one; lots of autonomy and a remarkable breadth of data and research to work with 5. A place where your individuality is an asset, not something to sand down

Cons

1. If you are a person who needs someone else to structure your day and hand you a to-do list, you may struggle; the autonomy is real, and so are the expectations that come with it 2. The pace and intellectual standards can be demanding; this is not a coast-and-collect-a-paycheck environment
