Pros

-Open, honest culture (this has an impact on everything but was especially apparent in the way the partners handled the COVID pandemic and communicated with the firm) -Smart, fun colleagues who enjoy developing relationships with each other and clients -Challenging client work across many industries and a good mix of longstanding and newer clients -An environment that is set up to help people stay in consulting for the long-term. I would say the median age is probably late 30s / early 40s and a majority of people have kids; much different than the age profile and pyramid structure of a large consulting firm

Cons

-As others have mentioned, partner group is not diverse but they are aware this is an issue and Consultant hiring in recent years has been very diverse

Pros

Berkeley is a great place to work. You have autonomy and trust to do your job. The leadership team remove the obstacles and distractions of internal politics, sales targets and thing you 'should' do to allow you to focus solely on your clients and the job at hand. Client work is challenging, complex and interesting on both of the projects I've been on. It has demanded a level of intellect and thinking that I haven't experienced in over 13 years of consulting, which I've really enjoyed. I feel truly valued for being a generalist (no longer a negative connotation attached) with a broad range of skills and industry knowledge and being able to apply this knowledge and experience in a client context. In the last 6 months, I've already worked on two very different pieces of work needing totally different approaches - both in a Covid world fully remote!

Cons

Small teams (sometimes 1) on client projects mean that you don't often get a 'team' feel and it can be difficult to feel like you're part of a bigger firm. However, Berkeley more than make up for it with the effort they make to try and keep us connected with one another - virtual or in-person. If you want to go deep into a specialty and only do one type of work in one industry, this may not be the best fit.

Pros

Great firm with a strong culture. Comprised entirely of experienced consultants; they trust you to do the work your own way while still giving you support when you need it. The whole firm is structured to give you the time and space to do a good job for your clients.

Cons

Small firm culture isn't for everyone. There is an emphasis on providing consultants variety in their client work, this might not appeal to those seeking to stay exclusively in their industry of choice or area of most expertise.
