The Signify Research employee rating is in line with the average (within 1 standard deviation) for employers within the Management and consulting industry (3.7 stars).
Offered a lot of exposure at a very early stage in a thriving industry, with opportunities to travel abroad and liase with clients. Projects had a meaningful impact and lots of responsibilities set from day one. Broader team are great with lots of social events planned.
Cons
Worked in the Healthcare IT team. Poor management style from a young, inexperienced manager who demanded too much and behaviour was borderline tyrannous. Clear favouritism for this manager amongst the leadership team, which complicated matters given the relative size of company. Felt extremely under appreciated and overworked.

Cons
- Analysts expected to do Sales cold-calls, write marketing content, be client-facing and create their own databases/forecasts all in one job role.
- Have seen multiple members of staff come out of meeting rooms in tears due to internal pressure.
- The worst middle-management I've ever worked for.
- Expect to work late into the night, and see half the company still active on Teams at 10pm on a Tuesday
- Appear to be aiming to race to a 5m valuation so they can sell-out to Omdia.
