Pluspunten

Top performers are identified and promoted, though because of constant belt-tightening are typically paid well below market price.

Minpunten

Headquarters are just a depressing place to be - very low-energy, lots of people who have been working at the company for 10+ years and are in no rush to get things done. Technical leadership is well behind the times and can be obstructionist. The private equity leadership team that was put in place in 2015-2016 is a pretty sleazy old boys club, very prone to favoritism. Because of the pressure to produce a certain multiple for the PE owners they're very reluctant to hire replacements for people who leave, leaving them with a lot of dead weight and a few very overworked and underpaid teams.

Pluspunten

I loved working at Strategic Insight. It's a great blend of technology and mutual fund industry for those that want to speak both languages (finance and tech). Phil and Avi are both great individuals, and the rest of the senior management staff are really laid back and cool people. Compensation is tough to comment on - who do you compare to? I think they are fair for entry level - new graduates from undergrad. Upper management/senior level - tough to say. I certainly enjoyed working there for 2 years and learned alot.

Minpunten

The company is growing quickly however it still has that loose management type of feel. That is great for those who are entrepreneurial, but the lack of structure can be bad for those who are used to defined roles. For those ambitious types, there are plenty of opportunities to wear multiple hats and help out in other areas of the business.
