Pros

The people you work with are great, a lot of opportunity for growth and development, and the company events and "gifts" are always fun

Cons

Over the last year, we have seen a lot of change like everyone else. While we had zero flexibility pre-covid when it comes to WFH, people hoped to have and provided feedback as to why continued flexibility post-covid was important to them to which leadership responded "we hear you but we think we are better in office" after record setting quarters. With many people on the outs, moral is down and people feel uncomfortable sharing their opinions even though historically it was always easy to share your feelings and feel heard. You'd think with one of the core company values, they would be more open to embracing and driving change, but instead feel that their opinion is more important than listening to employee's feelings and concerns.

Thank you for the feedback. I am sorry you are not feeling heard. Over the last year, our team’s ability to adapt and execute in a fully remote work environment has been extremely impressive. However, we feel it’s important to spend some time reestablishing our company culture and integrating the over 300 new employees hired during the pandemic. Bringing all employees back in the office means our new hires can experience our unique company culture and seek professional relationships with tenured PitchBook employees. In-office work provides opportunities for employees to connect with others outside their teams and encourages collaboration and open discourse. We’re constantly evaluating, and reevaluating based on the new information we receive, and we will continue to ask for and listen to feedback from employees.

Pros

Solid product, talented peers, and meaningful exposure to the private markets. You can build useful skills in account management and other customer-facing roles. Many individual contributors are smart, capable, and supportive of one another.

Cons

The biggest risk here is not the product or the day-to-day work - it is leadership. In some offices and teams, senior leaders create an environment where trust is low, expectations are inconsistent, and favoritism or perception can matter more than performance. Instead of clear direction and constructive support, employees are often left dealing with shifting standards, mixed messages, and a culture where appearances matter too much. Basic respect is not always there, and some leaders rely on intimidation rather than good management. Speaking up, asking questions, or challenging something professionally does not always help and can sometimes work against you. This is especially hard on strong performers. Taking on more usually leads to more pressure, not more support or recognition. Once leadership forms a negative view of someone, it can be difficult to change, even when that person is delivering results. Over time, the environment can feel political, discouraging, and draining. The result is predictable: burnout, disengagement, and avoidable turnover. A number of talented people have left not because they were incapable, but because the leadership culture made the job unsustainable.

Thank you for the candid feedback. We’re glad you value the product and your peers. We take concerns about leadership consistency and trust very seriously. Creating clear expectations, fair management, and respectful leadership is an ongoing focus for us. I encourage you to reach out to your executive team leader or HR leadership so we can discuss your concerns directly.
