Come to Learn, Stay to Grow - Avis employé Director Rational 360

They treat you like actual staff members instead of interns and you do actual work. You can guide how your internship goes and ask to be assigned to certain things or pick up certain items.

Not much training or formal structure (good and bad), if you get a good team and manager you're good, if you get a bad team you're cooked.

Overall my experience at Rational 360 has been positive. I've grown a lot in my role and have been trusted with meaningful responsibility across multiple clients, which has been both rewarding and motivating. I've also had the opportunity to build strong, valuable client relationships, which have allowed me to build trust with each of them. My team leads consistently provide constructive and positive feedback on my work, and I feel that has contributed to my development. While working here, I have had many opportunities to strengthen my leadership and management skills, which will be applicable throughout my career. Lastly, I've felt that my managers are genuinely invested in my professional growth at Rational 360 and beyond.

Like any fast-growing company, Rational 360 is navigating some growing pains. I believe senior leadership is aware of these challenges and is working to address them, but acknowledgement and communication from senior management on these issues would be appreciated. While there is a promotion timeline in place for junior staff, it can sometimes feel arbitrary. Junior employees are often told they’re ineligible for promotion solely due to the amount of time spent in their current role, even when their performance is consistently strong. All staff should be evaluated based on merit, not just tenure. While management has made some exceptions for standout employees, the standard should be that everyone is assessed on their individual performance, not a fixed timeline.
