Gallup reviews

Thank you for taking the time write about the 5+ years you spent with Gallup. Our goal with every person we hire and employ is for them to have an exceptional experience with their clients, manager, and co workers while developing in a strengths based environment. However, we admittedly aren't the right place to work for everyone. I would like to address two points from your review, so our readers can "see both sides" and draw their own conclusions. First, the most surprising learning for me here, is that there apparently was not clarity and alignment between Gallup and you in your hiring process in the area we are perhaps most well known for-Strengths Based Development. Specifically, what it means to work in a strengths based culture where promotions and growth are managed VERY differently than in traditional non-strengths environments. We believe this is one of several competitive advantages we have as an employer and contributes greatly to keeping our global turnover beneath 12% year over year. Second, I would like to make a point and state a few facts about benefits and compensation levels compared to "Top Tier" consulting firms. Our top performers are more than competitive with other firms, and of course low performers wouldn't compare with top performers at other firms. We continue to successfully recruit and employ consultants from "Top Tier" firms, which gives us a different perspective than you are reporting. Best of luck in the future. --Matt
