Good teams and smart people, but expect long hours - Analyst ClearView Healthcare Partners Employee Review

Good culture, people are very smart and nice

Experience differs based on projects, some clients will be very demanding

Learn a lot quickly and gain a lot of experience in biotech/pharma and in improving soft skills (e.g., oral and written communication, slide making, timeline planning and proactivity, etc.). Also I liked my colleagues. Lastly, I was able to exit to a much higher paying job and title, and the ClearView name did seem to help in interviews.

Honestly, a lot. The work life balance isn't good, which everyone should know going in, but what really irks me is the lack of care for ACs, which can be seen on so many levels: the very low pay (compared to other jobs coming out of elite schools) for all AC levels, high standards for promotion (vs. other life science consulting companies that auto promote after a year to recognize the hard work of consulting), lack of benefits, projects being improperly scoped for length and number of ACs (the number of times I and others have had to work on a project after it "ended" and we already got staffed on something else, is more than I could count), having to check your work phone all hours of the day, etc. I get that the business model for consulting in general is you hire new grads and then they burn out after a couple of years and its a revolving door (or force people to work 24/7 to get promoted to LT one day), but that doesn't mean it is respectable!!! I wouldn't feel proud being a partner at ClearView, knowing how unhappy so many ACs are. And us ACs sit through many dinners with LT, talking about how much money they have.
