Pros

They do alot of work around the world, but at the same time it's hard to know whether there is actually real positive impact. Everyone was very nice throughout the interview process.

Cons

Very white place with no diversity....look on LinkedIn and you will see that most of the profiles are of white people. There are alot of women but again mostly white women that all look the same. When I interviewed I didn't see any black people at all. It makes you wonder what they mean by diversity because if you can't source any black people to work there then that's a major problem. There also seemed to be alot of former consultants so that should tell you something about their priorities.
