American Institutes for Research Employee Review

Former Employee – worked at American Institutes for Research full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Many social events throughout the year
Good paid time off schedule
Wonderful office location ( The HQ )
Small gym with showers, etc ( The HQ )
Very cheap parking
Comparatively cheap medical / dental benefits
Relaxed dress code
Young staff environment
Sports teams

Cons – The department and time I was at AIR allowed me to advance quickly and work on and learn new things often. However from my co-workers I know other areas of the company it was very hard to get promoted or a raise, and that they were over-stressed and worked.

I can say as a whole the company provided me a very positive experience, but for others I understand and can agree with their complaints of departments that I did not work in.

Advice to Senior Management – Work on employee retention by treating junior staff better, ensuring the workload is not overwhelming, and giving their managers training on how to develop their employees.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
