Pros

Has the potential to be really good

Cons

Has weak and uninspiring leadership which starts at the top. Culture of fear and harassment in HR driven from CHRO at Verisk - you are either in the inner circle or out of it - 'my way or the highway' approach to HR leadership (many excellent HR people have left or been exited because of this).

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
