Pros

The campus is gorgeous and great for walks.

Cons

Management, the technology, the fact that their entire business model is built on selling horoscopes to Companies that aren't aware enough to realize it. If you have a hint of another opportunity, take it. It's an awful place to work. Retaliation is real and teams are worse than you can imagine.

Pros

Positive culture Campus location Somewhat flexible schedules (100% up to your manager, no policy) Nothing to do

Cons

"Positive culture" Nothing to do Somewhat flexible schedules (100% up to your manager, no policy) No vacation or holidays No opportunities for advancement Worse benefits than hourly employment at Walmart Employees are pressured into giving a Glassdoor review just 3 weeks into the job so the ratings are manufactured.

Gallup has a positive, inclusive culture where people can innovate, do great work, and receive frequent feedback to maximize their talents. Our developers are busy creating industry leading platforms that help drive development, engagement, and performance at many of the world’s biggest and best companies…and our roadmap has planned features years into the future – far from “nothing to do”! With one of the most statistically diverse workgroups in technology, we’re far from a “boys club.” In addition to being led by two female CIOs, we also support many city wide and global initiatives through support in programs like Grace Hopper, Code Crush, and additional local efforts to promote more women pursuing technology degrees. At Gallup, we do not have a set vacation or holiday schedule – we value the freedom to allow individuals to choose what holidays are important to them to celebrate and people should take the vacation time they need and want that aligns with their work, life, experience, and tenure. If employees are unsure of how many days that means or they want a set number, they are encouraged to ask their manager to get a sense of how many seems right. We aren’t going to keep track of it, but individuals can if that helps. My door is always open and I value a conversation at any time so we can avoid any misinterpretation and resolve any challenges. If Gallup wasn’t the right place for you, I do wish you the best of luck in the future and an organization with more structure may be better to help you shine.

Pros

Flexible schedule and a nice gym

Cons

Gallup is continuously moving away from being a legitimate polling company and is attempting to sell it's nonsense strength finder assessments. However, I was hired as a research analyst. First, I found that all of my managers do not know anything about statistics. Gallup is a company full of Ph.D's managed by B.A.'s. Gallup says that employees are responsible for finding their own work. In other words, they hire full-time employees but treat them like independent contractors. Since senior analysts generally get to choose their projects, new analysts are forced to fight over scraps or lose their jobs. I was eventually terminated because my manager couldn't find work for me. Additionally, he admitted to me that he had no plans for me when I was hired, but hired me anyway because of my abilities and training. Gallup pays employees less than almost anywhere else. A starting analyst at gallup makes 20k less than most other competitors. Finally, the insurance is ridiculously expensive for what you get.
