Forrester is a family

Pros

I've been with Forrester for 2 years now. When I first walked in I figured it would be just like any other job. It wasn’t until I was faced with one of the most personal hardships I hope to ever endure that I realized it was so much more than just a job. So many colleagues became like family, became a support system that I couldn’t have done without. And Forrester as a whole really took care of me. Exactly one year ago today I had to make the very difficult decision to leave my position with Forrester to tend to personal matters. I didn’t think I’d have the chance to come back. I was only gone for 2 months and I had the opportunity to come back, and my Forrester family welcomed me right back in. Although we spend so much of our lives at work, It’s pretty rare to find a job where you feel a part of something bigger. I couldn’t have gotten through the past two years without the support of my fellow Forresterites.

Cons

There are few cons to Forrester worth mentioning.
