It's a great company when you are higher up (and better than the reviews indicate for entry level folks) - Project Manager Guidepoint Employee Review

Pros

- Friendly, relaxed office culture - More of a 9-5 job than other expert networks - Quick promotion for high performers - Lots of opportunities to move internally - Diverse client exposure Overall, this is a pretty good place to work, especially after you "survive" the entry level role. FWIW, 90%+ of the reviews here are for the entry level role, which, admittedly, is tough but essential to the business model. Once you start to manage client relationships it's a solid firm to hone your skills and grow professionally.

Cons

- The RA role sucks - it's great exposure for an entry level person, but it sucks. It sucks at all of our competitor firms too. High pressure, rote, dumb work. The firm could do a much better job of integrating RA's into client facing roles. That said, the role is not without its benefits. The salary is competitve and benefits are reasonably good. Hours are good and you aren't expected to work when not in the office (a rarity these days). - Limited technology to support more flexible work arrangements. The CEO has this hangup about people being at their desks every day. It's not 1990 any more. - The physical office is gross and terrible, but they are moving to new digs later this year.

Pros

the only pros are the salary and two hybrid days

Cons

Do not take a job with Guidepoint, even if you were a strong student in college and consider yourself a hard worker. The project managers are fine, but the team leads are awful. You won’t learn any tangible skills; the work largely consists of reaching out to people on LinkedIn for hours on end. On top of that, they will let people go very easily. Stay away from this company.
