Charles River Associates provides an unparalleled opportunity to work with "high caliber, experienced people, with incredible educations and experience" while working on "extremely high-profile cases that are national in scope."

The "stimulating" work environment is "an interesting blend of the academic and business worlds," says another. Employees at Charles River Associates laud the firm's "scholarly" and "meritocratic" culture, which they hasten to add is far from "rigid - someone seems to understand that talent is usually accompanied by some level of eccentricity," says one insider.
