Not a consulting "firm." This is a survey company. - Associate Partner Gallup Employee Review

Pros

Flexibility and vacation policy. Good brand name - primary recognition with polling. No performance reviews - very "nice" people who focus on strengths. Highlighting or recognizing weaknesses is taboo.

Cons

Poor management, either young and inexperienced or older and focused on product sales. This is not a consulting company - it is a company that sells surveys. Titles of Partner and Engagement Manager - reality is Sales and Project Manager. Little to no intellectual capital being generated. If you spend your time "consulting" and solving problems - you are looked at negatively because you do not "believe in the products." My recommendation is NOT to join this company if you have aspirations to join a consulting company to do consulting. This is not a company that values an MBA.

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
