Pros

Good work-life balance Centrally located in a busy area of DC

Kontras

I hardly had any work the first seven months I worked here. Apparently they had hired me without really having any work prepared for me to do. This is a problem because of billing so I tried to cover myself by asking for billable and non-billable work all the time so they were amply aware of this. After seven months upper management caught on and I was somehow blamed for this insisting whatever small amounts of work I had been given I wasn't recording enough hours for. They encourage you to ask questions but then act irritated when you do. There was one very unprofessional colleague though the rest were fine, but in such a small office and group (10 people) that really affects morale.

Pros

Diverse work, intelligent and ambitious colleagues, above average compensation package for newly minted PhDs. Giving 2 stars simply because of these perks.

Kontras

Extremely poor work/life balance, high pressure on billable hours/utilization, cutthroat/burn-and-churn culture, weak management, poor mentorship opportunities (didn't feel inspired by many leaders), sink-or-swim onboarding (I think this has changed a little since I left), ton of gatekeeping around promotions, and worst of all.... there's very little humanity present in the culture. Almost everyone I knew didn't fundamentally feel as if their office, practice, and/or manager cared about them as a human. Bad managers get promoted so long as they're revenue generating. I would not recommend this company to be a person's first choice.
