Pros

The best reasons to work here include the potential to broad exposure of various projects. Fairly competitive salary (compared to Navigant and other small consulting firms).

Cons

Cons: Minimal training (Consultants are expected to learn mostly on the job, which is only ok if your manager is good at training or if you're very good at teaching yourself.) No organized career management (Again, you're on your own to find opportunities that broaden your skill set or help you develop an expertise. If you can get fortunate to team up with a strong director and an even stronger Partner that you have great chemistry with, then you're set. Otherwise, you can be left behind because the company does not have a organized format to develop their consultants.) Compensation is not transparent.

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.
