Pros

Quality of engagements is reasonable FTI punches above its weight in Corporate Finance given the non big-4 brand name Some ambitious and high performing people at mid management levels -> however there are also too any average performers Compensation is decent

Cons

Culture is non existent/ poor -> this is the root of all other cons Limited desire by senior management to invest in and develop talent Short termist view around projects -> just get the job done and collect the fee and move on Lack of honest feedback around performance and career development No consideration given to people wanting to have a life outside of work -> yes there is an expectation of long hours, but some empathy/flexibility would be helpful

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.
