Pros

Some of them are decent people outside of work.

Cons

The current employees who fiercely defend this place must suffer from Stockholm syndrome, or their bosses told them to write positive reviews. Yes, all companies will have some disgruntled former employees and "fit" issues, but ask yourself this: should a tiny "boutique" consulting group have this many dissatisfied former employees? At what point, do you stop blaming others and look in the mirror? They are deceitful during the interview process about how small the company is and what kind of work you will be doing. You'll be whipped along, doing soulless, mind-numbing work, mostly for big pharma. Believe the horror stories--the work culture is toxic.

Pros

Great exposure to variety of work subject matter, clients, strategy projects and leadership within project work after longer tenure. Good environment with smart motivated colleagues

Cons

Project experience varies with middle manager that you get staffed with, as some are fantastic, have great social/managing skills and enough experience to mentor or collab productively on slides/insights. Some simply don't.

Pros

Great client work and exposure to market access landscape, will set you up for great exits long term. Internal growth opps aplenty, but do require being strategic with projects/teammates you get placed on. ~2-3 projects at a time. Projects are mostly well paced, spread out, manageable 75% of the year.

Cons

Highly demanding work in fourth quarter, >70 hour weeks with >3 projects all asking for bandwidth. Can feel like a collegiate environment because everyone is similar in age which is great but... seniority presence feels like its missing.
