Insight offers excellent career opportunities for talented individuals looking to join a highly capable consulting team. Consulting is an interesting and engaging career path, in which our product reflects our individual abilities and dedication to working together on challenging issues. At Insight, we seek to enable fulfilling professional growth for each team member, recognizing each individual’s unique abilities, circumstances, and career-path preferences.

Consultants at Insight contribute meaningfully to challenging and interesting projects that foster personal development and career growth. We emphasize continuous progress through diligence, perseverance, and curiosity. We recognize and appreciate that we are all unique individuals coming together from different backgrounds to provide a positive experience for our clients and each other.

Our mission extends to improving economic outcomes for our clients and the legal system through informed decision-making. This commitment is deeply ingrained in our culture, fostering a high-performance consulting environment where our consultants thrive through their work ethic, teamwork, and commitment to excellence. At Insight, we recognize that high performance is not only about technical proficiency, but also about understanding the “why” behind our analysis.

A significant percentage of our work involves litigation consulting, which entails providing support to attorneys and their clients involved in legal disputes, primarily through expert opinions offered in detailed written reports and testimony at trial. Our consultants rigorously apply their economic expertise in areas such as case analysis, strategy development, and presentation of economic theory and complex data analysis. Our matters typically involve high-stakes disputes relating to economic harm, competitive conditions, efficiency and public interest, and valuation, among other issues.

Within a legal framework, our consultants provide critical support to Insight experts by reviewing relevant case evidence (business documents and witness testimony), analyzing complex data sets, performing statistical and quantitative analysis, and developing written reports and supporting exhibits. The expert report aims to assist attorneys, judges, and juries in understanding complex economic issues related to the case, and the professional opinion rendered is ultimately supported, in the courtroom, by expert witness testimony. As such, consultants also assist with expert preparation for questioning under oath at depositions and trials, among other litigation-related projects.

In addition to litigation consulting, Insight experts and consultants advise clients on business issues such as intellectual property valuation, competitive strategies, pricing, and product launches. Insight provides opportunities to build professional skills in data analysis, analytical reasoning, economic research, critical thinking, and effective writing – all through varied exposure to clients, projects, and industries and close and collegial collaboration with our experts and senior staff. Our team works with top-tier law firms and industry-leading clients, ranging from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies across a variety of industries.

At Insight, we strive for meaningful work and meaningful relationships. We benefit from a culture of positivity that infuses our work, improves our professional lives, and enhances our personal lives. Our highly supportive community favors thoughtfulness, inclusion, and mutual support, so that each team member at Insight is valued and appreciated, regardless of title or tenure.

Insight’s work is deeply rooted in our commitment to expertise. Our clients, who demand consistently excellent analysis on interesting economic projects, inspire us to seek deep understanding of relevant economics principles, legal frameworks, methods, approaches, and tools for all team members at every level. In addition, we prioritize honesty, integrity, trust, and accountability, creating a foundation for a work atmosphere that is not only intellectually stimulating but also personally enriching. As part of this commitment, we also partner with a program that connects public interest legal teams with expert services like ours–extending the reach of our work to support meaningful litigation efforts that might not otherwise have access to economic expertise.

Maintaining a fun and collegial workplace is a vital aspect of our culture. Our collaborative work environment allows consultants to work alongside and learn from senior team members and experts. We embrace shared learning and readily extend assistance to others. The team is our greatest resource, and we benefit collectively through skill development, growth opportunities, and mentorship.
