      Smart People - Inconsistent Leadership

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You get the opportunity to work with smart people and take on as much responsibility as you can take. Varied clients across the globe.

      Cons

      Long work hours make it difficult to balance life outside of work in some practices where other practices have a much better work load. Difference in scoping may have to do with maturity of leadership team.

      Great environment and people, however, it's not in the same league as McKinsey, Bain and BCG

      Pros

      Interesting people, variety of work

      Cons

      Early industry specialization removes the generalist experience which is so vital in consulting, lack of prominent alumni limits exit opportunities, no focus on local work meaning a lot of travel, global staffing model is downside as you may be forced to remote geographies for more than 3 months per year

      Typical top management consultancy, expect the usual - excellent project work - no respect for the individual

      Pros

      International experience across several continents. Interesting projects and (top-class) clients; some good consulting tools. A good mix of people working there, some with excellent knowledge and experience. In good competition with McKinsey and BCG.

      Cons

      Work-life balance doesn't exist, basically no vacations (only when there is no project), little career progress, no sabbaticals. Tough project work - work days up to 22 hours. No respect for the individual. Bad knowledge management system - really something to improve! Compensation varies greatly on location og home office - you might be in the same project (even in your home country) with somebody at your level but earning double (or half).
