Pros

The office culture is generally positive, though leadership remains fairly traditional and lacks diversity at the top. There are occasional social events like happy hours, but nothing particularly memorable or standout. The core working hours (11am–3pm) offer good flexibility, especially for those with family responsibilities.

Cons

Work-life balance is largely dependent on your department. Sales enjoys a fair amount of flexibility, but for most other teams, you’ll likely be working well beyond 40 hours a week—without additional compensation. The company culture heavily rewards visibility and self-promotion over actual performance. While promotions are claimed to be based on merit, in practice they often go to those who are best at showcasing themselves to the right people, rather than those delivering consistent results. The environment can feel cliquish and political—more like a high school than a professional workplace. Senior employees tend to prioritize self-preservation, and long-tenured staff often act in their own interest rather than that of the broader team. Career growth is difficult, compensation is below market standards, and it’s easy to feel stuck without a clear path forward. Bottom line: There’s hope that things might improve, but for now, the grass truly is greener elsewhere. If you're someone who values actual performance over appearances and wants to grow in a supportive environment, this may not be the place for you.

Bringing back EIC (not the comedy troupe) in Catalyst

Pros

1. A handful of upper management are meritocratic. You are quite lucky if you have them as your line/direct managers (Honest to god, no sarcasm here) 2. Perfect place to groom your sycophantic behavior 3. You are in for a ride of suspense. I guess that counts for "thrill" if that floats your boat. You never know if worthy people will get their due promotions/bonuses or less deserving people with a particular talent for sucking air out of derrière would. Its anybody's guess. Keeps the "Corporate Slavery" spirit alive.

Cons

1. Finishing your allocated work between 9-5 is looked down upon behind closed doors. If you don't stay late that means you aren't going the extra mile. 2. Meaningful projects are a rarity to come. The team i.e. Catalyst is rapidly turning into a proper back-end office focused on doing mindless labor rather than meaningful consulting projects. 3. Since bulk of the employees work on the above-mentioned kind of projects, it is extremely difficult to assess a person's capability. 4. People close to the management are rewarded easily (To be fair, its a ubiquitous thing rather than a Catalyst/Euromonitor thing) 5. Upper management has the authority to change an employee's rating (despite never meeting or working with the employee) even if the employee's direct/line manager has different views. 6. Team's vision + outlook + hierarchy changes at the drop of a hat. Really no point in grooming/recruiting a specific kind of talent if you end up changing your direction on a monthly basis. Poor vision such as this leads to a good chunk of recruits being deemed surplus and consequently allocated mindless labour. 7. EXTREME EXTREME OFFICE POLITICS. 8. Borderline micromanagement by the senior folks in London (Cue EIC joke). Since when has the director of a company started taking stock in if a person has "swiped in" or not. 9. Different rules for different teams with respect to leaves, WFH, micromanagement, visibility, promotion emails etc.

Pros

PTO is great (3 weeks). Flexible arrival/departure times. Beautiful new office. Work life balance is good.

Cons

Most of the management team have never worked anywhere else and are stuck in a mind set that worked for this company 5 years ago. Management is very rigid about arbitrary things and not focused on implementing changes that would make a difference. For example they are still counting calls for all of their sales teams; in a world where most business is done via email. The pay is very low for the amount of work required to keep up with customer demands. Their core product of syndicated data refreshed once per year is getting tired for most customers, particularly at a price that increases every year. Opportunity for career growth is nonexistent.
