Pros & Cons are excerpts from user reviews. They are not authored by Glassdoor.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Employees are well respected and career development is a big theme. Plenty of women in leadership roles also, which is great to see. Pay is fair and benefits are pretty standard.
Cons
Not much in terms of work socials, but this is mostly down to the pandemic.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Nothing good to say about them. Don’t care about their employees and will do anything to hide their dodgy management
Cons
Everything! The management is appalling, HR are useless and will not help in any situation so beware. Not inclusive whatsoever
Continue reading - Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Fair pay and benefits. Willing to take a chance on the right kind of person and invest in developing you. Lovely, friendly people and environment. Good technical equipment. International company with great communication links between countries.
Cons
None to report as of yet.
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
It's a great, open and straightforward company, who cares massively about it's people! It's somewhat a small company numbers wise, in comparison to where i've come from, so you are valued as a person. The ability to work from home and to do so whenever you want (post covid) is excellent.
Cons
Missing some benefits that others would provide. Depending on your background it's quite difficult to pick up the terminologies and how the business runs.
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
Culture, social events, benefits, collbarative
Cons
Pay, senior management, lack of communication
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
In-depth training of products, strong eco-system support, inclusive & collaborative environment, strong management support, fast paced, full support of work/life balance, opportunity to grow.
Cons
Big workload which requires a strong structured approach. Headquarters in US so more US focused.
- Current Employee, more than 8 years★★★★★
Pros
Forrester has given me scope to learn, grow, try new things, and in a decade of working here I'm still being challenged and supported by my leaders and my team. We get to work with the brightest people, the best clients and make a genuine impact every day.
Cons
As a non-US employee its sometimes tough to work out what long-term senior career progression looks like. There's a head office gravity that's hard to avoid in any company, but in the last couple of years this has improved as we've focused more on growing the "international" (i.e. Not USA) business. I am hopeful. Gender and sexual orientation diversity is awesome. Ethnic diversity is less so, though in the European and APAC divisions we have a massive range of different nationalities and cultural backgrounds. The issue is more obvious in Boston.
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Through training process. Extremely supportive team around me. Clear opportunity for development.
Cons
Workload can be quite volatile, where some days are extremely busy and others are very quiet.
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Yearly trip away for Sales Kickoff
Cons
Terrible line manager. Despite repeated complaints from members of the team they were still left in charge and promoted. In 18 months the entire team left.
Continue reading - Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
I have an overall negative experience
Cons
favouritism, low pay, covering for under-qualified personnel, no career opportunities
