Pros

good first job. good health benefits and 401k

Cons

often rewards bad behavior and really lazy employees. Those that are not providing any value - and even those that are problematic are kept on and promoted. Those who are providing value are forced to pick up the slack for them. There is a lot of negativity within certain groups - some really bad attitudes. a lot of people that dont show up on time or leave early, some people that barely come into the office. really, really low pay for consultants who are often expected to work outside of the normal 9-6. Would be fine if they didnt pay you the bare minimum

Pros

* Strong brand recognition and an impressive roster of clients and projects. * Opportunity to work with talented colleagues across multiple business segments. * Exposure to a fast-paced environment that provides significant professional growth and learning opportunities.

Cons

* Lack of consistent leadership visibility and clear strategic direction across parts of the organization. * Communication from senior leadership can be limited, leaving employees without a clear understanding of priorities and long-term goals. * Decision-making often feels reactive rather than proactive. * Accountability and partnership are inconsistent across teams and business segments. * Employees may not always feel adequately supported when raising concerns or navigating challenging situations. * Leadership teams are often stretched thin, which can impact coaching, communication, and overall employee support. * Performance evaluation and promotion processes can lack transparency, making it difficult to understand how decisions are made. * Employee experiences can vary significantly depending on team, manager, and business segment. * Opportunities for feedback exist, but employees do not always see meaningful action taken in response to recurring concerns. * Collaboration and cross-functional alignment can be challenging at times due to differing priorities and expectations.
