Great place to work and to grow

Pros

Very interesting projects and very great culture compared to other firms. I very much appreciate the culture change, it is one of the most inclusive consulting firms and the job is very challenging

Cons

As in all consulting firms, the working hours are not the best. I've been lucky to only work few weekends, but other people cannot say the same

Good firm to work for with some challenges due to smaller scale / ops-focus

Pros

- Generally good people / culture. Less ego than other firms / industries. Reason why stayed for 5+ yrs - Attractive salary (up to Principal level) for consulting - Strong push for growth - exciting times as it seems to be working - Smaller scale (1/8th of McK) makes it easier to "change" things; more "startup" feel

Cons

- Perceived as a "Sourcing / Ops shop" in the US. Limits exit options / how you are perceived in the market - Lack of scale and focus in key areas (alumni, external placements, training, various support roles etc) - Less ability to specialize (which keeps it exciting, yet slows down expertise-building, time to promotion etc) - Thought-leadership in distinct areas only (not as broad as larger competitors) - Less "glamour" (for those who need it - although recent offsites in Cancuun / Cannes etc helped) ... and the usual industry-cons: - Lots of travel / average work-life balance - Not every project is exciting (and guess what: the same is true for MBB)

Pros

Not a bad employer. Great opportunities. Smart people. Worldwide presence. Good atmosphere. Generally a good experience - worked there for 4 years. Paris office and on Asia assignments.

Cons

None that I can think of off the bat. None that stand out as particularly egregious.
