So soon out of college and with mounting student debts to pay off, I was desperate for a job--any job. So I went to work for Acumen. I was there for a couple of months before leaving for Goldman Sachs. I had the worst time ever. I had to deal with terrible HR people, who were engaged in very dubious practice. We were told to go on glassdoor and write positive reviews about the company. Say what? A year ago, the company had a rating of 2.8; now it's 3.2. This kind of artificially pumping up your company ratings is very questionable from an ethical point of view. I would treat recent 5-star reviews with a very, VERY large grain of salt.
