Vantaggi

- Soem of my very best friends are from AArete, and it really is a culture that encourages this relationship building - Some leaders truly care about your care about your career and wellbeing, and I've formed genuine mentor/mentee relationships at AArete - If you align with a service offering, you have a strong support group to learn and grow and the firm

Svantaggi

- Compensation and benefits are far below market - Management takes departures very personally and have had outbursts of rage when employees put in their two weeks - There's a huge disconnect between leadership and staff in terms of communication, and leadership has put in very small effort to adjust that - Projects at AArete have become non-strategic and staff aug focused that increase turnover and decrease company morale - Company culture has shifted from an eager-to-learn mentality to a lazy (and finger pointing) one due to MD pressure to completely rely on shared services - MDs oversell and understaff projects without any risk mitigation, then blame managers for poor project planning and provide little to no support - Management states they are very invested in Diversity and Inclusion but it feels performative as there is a lack of meaningful representation of marginalized groups and the employee resource group is lead mostly by white males - Overall lack of transparency and poor communication from leadership - Lots of favoritism and rewarding of undeserving employees

Vantaggi

- flexibility with where and when you work -the ability to work with different clients on various projects ranging from payment recoupment to process improvement

Svantaggi

Avoid this company at all costs. It is impressive how many incompetent and toxic leaders are employed by one place. HR is aware of these leaders but chooses to enable and protect them instead of prioritizing the well being of its employees. Don't believe these positive glassdoor reviews. AArete encourages employees to give positive feedback on glassdoor. The 1 or 2 star reviews are the more realistic view of AArete. - No opportunities to voice your opinion without management taking offense - DEI: AArete talks about DEI but if you look at the organization from top to bottom you can clearly see that its not a priority. -No advancement here. Promotions are very biased -Incompetent managers and directors.
