Vantaggi

I worked in the Analytics Team at Verisk Maplecroft for more than four years and had a very positive experience. There is plenty of scope for innovation - for example (and perhaps providing a rebuttal to some of the previous reviews posted) since the introduction of new leadership in mid-2015 my team were able to implement a comprehensive review of all of our political risk methodologies, a process that was greatly enhanced by the contribution of the company's excellent Politics Team. Furthermore, the in-house software and GIS teams mean that the company has the ability to quickly introduce new, unique tools and products. Verisk Maplecroft's products are utilised by an impressive group of world-leading multinationals and, at least in the Analytics Team, there is a lot of opportunity to interact with clients. For those interested in developing a public profile in risk analysis, the company's exceptional media and communications team provide numerous opportunities to work with the press. In terms of work-life balance, it is my view that the company has made significant improvements in this area. There is a lot of flexibility in terms of working hours and location, both of which I found invaluable. I also found that, in its current incarnation, Verisk Maplecroft is a highly compassionate company, ensuring that employees with health or other personal issues receive the support they require. If and when people choose to leave the company, they typically go on to very well-respected firms, including multinationals, other risk consultancies or government and non-government organisations.

Svantaggi

Verisk Maplecroft has gone through a phenomenal degree of change since the new leadership came in. While this has created many opportunities for employees, it has, understandably, created some tension within the business as the structure of the company and its products have been realigned. I would suggest that there is now a considerable need for a period of consolidation to avoid fatigue setting in with the rate of change. In terms of career advancement, it's my view that that company needs to provide a clear framework for progression, particularly for more senior analysts.

Vantaggi

Excellent opportunities for junior analysts (e.g. college grads or former interns) to develop a skill-set or to work on projects that most other businesses in the space wouldn't offer. For example, the company generally promotes from within for product management roles and provides multiple opportunities for willing analysts to lead on projects or client engagement. - Global presence which allows analysts to occasionally transfer between offices or to work remotely. - Hands off management approach means that analysts are given an opportunity to take ownership on projects and deliverables. - Unlike many other businesses in the sector, the company really does offer individuals opportunities to develop/grow, as long as they are willing to pursue opportunities they may not have expertise in. - a company that truly promotes a flexible working culture and supports L&D. - the scope and breadth of topics/industries that analysts are exposed to during their time with company sets them up for success when looking for their next jobs; analysts have moved on to roles with multinationals, branches of the armed forces, global consulting firms, and NGOs.

Svantaggi

- Turnaround times on projects are often quite quick, meaning that analysts will have to juggle multiple competing priorities. - Pay is not the highest, though benefits package is top notch.
