Pros

-smart people -informal, friendly culture -good travel benefits -free snacks! -very international staffing (most people have worked on multiple projects abroad and projects are staffed quite internationally) -attractive comp relative to other consultancies -colleagues are happy to share and take time to mentor you

Cons

-very little predictability over your schedule (both hours and location) -company is very much adapting from being a small company to being a larger one, and infrastructure lags in a number of areas -a few poor managers can make for some occasionally unpleasant projects

Pros

Good culture, solid pay, good benefits

Cons

Same as with most big companies. HR a little too focused on DEI and feel good inclusion initiatives over things that matter to most employees and clients. Top management messaging is generic and seems forced. But all senior leadership seem fairly genuine and good people vs. hyper focused on dollars alone.
