Pros
All the Consultants and Research Analysts at RI are great (basically anyone under the age of 30 is wonderful to work with - there is often unity in misery...)
Cons
Staying objective, the work is incredibly repetitive and mind numbing... everyone basically makes the same 15-20 slides over and over again all day every day... there is very little room for personal interpretation, especially with Senior Management urging you to follow their own vision (which is ultimately always in line with a sales pitch and not necessarily always the data)... I was very disappointed with my time at RI, they preach a mantra of being international and a fast growing company but its just not true. The employees who are actually producing reports are miserable with low salaries and little appreciation/ recognition. Do yourselves a favor and just stay away. I promise, within 2-3 months of working at RI you'll realize its all just smoke and mirrors when it comes to work quality, career development and the RI product. Its not a coincidence a handful of people resigned and moved on within the last 6-months.
