Pros

Huron can be a fast-paced job with the ability to advance in your career quickly based on performance - but you have to seek those opportunities, get to know your practice leadership and ensure that you have someone in senior leadership keeping your best interests in mind. Huron is flexible about vacations and scheduling and enabling the individual to schedule their time as a professional - not always checking up on you every moment. Lastly, the company is very supportive of philanthropic interests.

Cons

I understand from working on training initiatives, etc. that feelings are very different across practices. There does not appear to be a sense of organization or community from highest levels of management. One's loyalty is to their practice and not "Huron" at large. It is also very easy to have young people fall off track and get "lost" if they do not align with someone in senior leadership to watch out for them. Favorites sky rocket and others are left behind. It is not enough to be smart and dedicated - you must also know to self-promote - but that may be a product of the consulting world at large.

Pros

Diversity, values employees, good company culture, interesting work

Cons

Relatively flat leadership structure can be a pro or a con, sometimes would be more useful to be more unified with toolset and project workflow. Nothing major for sure

Pros

Strong, motivated teams — most colleagues are talented, hardworking, and genuinely good to work with. Collaborative culture at the team level, even when leadership falls short. Exposure to meaningful healthcare IT work and client-facing experience

Cons

Leadership on EHR has been a significant weak point, with poor decision-making that’s eroded staff confidence. Whistleblowing and internal escalation processes don’t appear to be taken seriously — concerns raised don’t lead to meaningful action. Promotions often feel driven by favoritism rather than merit or performance, which undermines morale and trust in the process
