Pros

Most importantly this company gives you the opportunity to work on many varied projects which exposes you to a wide-array of statistical problems to solve. They also do not box you into learning a "company language" so that you can float freely between using R, SAS, Python, or whatever else you choose to be your problem-solving language of choice. Company has a handle on that work/life balance needs to exist. Also of note is that company is very flexible with schedule and has a casual dress code which is a plus for a position like Statistician that rarely meets with clients face-to-face.

Cons

Salary is a little below-average compared to what similar companies offer. Because your work is mainly done through a contract basis, there will be seasonal lulls in your workload. Some of the primary clients are interested in deviating from the norm in terms statistical analysis, which can be frustrating at times

D.T.A. (Don't Trust Anybody) in Management

Pros

There are a lot of talented staff here. Some very knowledgeable individuals. Depending on program, can definitely feel like you can make a difference. Have ability to pick up some new skill sets, and take responsibility for new projects/roles.

Cons

Problems start at the top. Pay is terrible, benefits are nothing special. Expect to have little to nothing in your annual review. Too many in management feel it necessary to knock you; make one mad, and people can turn in an instant.

Disappointing and Dishonest

Pros

There are some good people at IEM, but really there are some good people at just about every company. Beyond that the outlook for IEM is grim

Cons

Unprofessional and dishonest in many areas: hiring, compensation, stability, career growth. The wheels seem to be coming off the wagon and no one is able to figure out how to get the company back on track.
