What our employees say
Ramon Llamas
Research Director
What has been the most unique experience or day you’ve had at IDC?
Presenting at Directions. It’s a lot more than just going up on stage and talking through 15 – 20 slides in 35 minutes. The preparation, rehearsal, and delivery all take on a life of their own the closer we get to Directions, and everything gets magnified 100x when you’re on the main stage. I’ll say this much though: it’s also one of the most thrilling experiences I’ve had.
If you had to describe IDC in three words, which would you choose?
I’m going to go with three phrases: Forward-thinking, Sound expertise, Insightful analysis.
Jitesh Ubrani

What has helped make you successful at IDC?
IDC offers many opportunities for career development. I was lucky enough to be selected for the Mentor Program during my first year of employment. IDC matches you up with someone in a different department, which is a great way to learn about other aspects of the IDC business that you may not be aware of. I was lucky enough to be partnered with a wonderful mentor, and she continues to be a key part of my daily life at IDC, for guidance and as a sounding board for new ideas, even after 10+ years.
