      Pros

      Minimal red tape, given freedom to explore opportunities Rapidly expanding business, moving in the right direction Due to number of acquisitions there are a few structural issues. These are being noticed and worked on which is very positive Fantastic cafeteria with friendly staff Warm culture at GlobalData and good work life balance

      Cons

      No benefits Minimal holiday days Laptops only in some departments and no desktops Small HR team BUT this is seen to be moving forward

      Eroding Quality

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Remnants of excellent talent & strong camaraderie in some pockets of the company. Some telecommuting options. No shortage of work. Analysts can go after a market and build up a practice.

      Cons

      HR is totally unresponsive. Anything it does (rarely) do is always terrible. Corporate management turning the screws for profitability, forcing researchers to shoestring. That profitability is going to hire more and more sales who don't know products and are pushing any quick buck, eroding quality of the product. More and more time wasters. Internal reporting, meetings, accountability, and overall red tape. Zero communication by upper management to employees, but that could be a good thing.
