Pros
Great Culture Friendly people Flexible work options Employee ownership plan
Cons
Depending on the practice, clients are often smaller or middle market sized and less desirable to consult for. Projects are often not strategic in nature and are more implementation focused Projects are often rinse and repeat, you might get staffed doing the same thing for 2-3 years at different clients In 2021 we sold off 50% of our company to private equity, and this has materially changed leadership's direction and focus - the only focus now appears to be growth and profitability, to help the private equity firm retain an attractive investment and exit multiple. Lost a number of excellent leaders and talent post 2021 buy-out, and the firm is currently struggling in 2022 and 2023, and had to complete a sizable layoff for the first time ever
