Pros

Some of them are decent people outside of work.

Cons

The current employees who fiercely defend this place must suffer from Stockholm syndrome, or their bosses told them to write positive reviews. Yes, all companies will have some disgruntled former employees and "fit" issues, but ask yourself this: should a tiny "boutique" consulting group have this many dissatisfied former employees? At what point, do you stop blaming others and look in the mirror? They are deceitful during the interview process about how small the company is and what kind of work you will be doing. You'll be whipped along, doing soulless, mind-numbing work, mostly for big pharma. Believe the horror stories--the work culture is toxic.

Inefficient management and poor work culture

Pros

Working here gives you a tiny glimpse of the healthcare space and the associated challenges. But in my humble opinion, there are much better places to learn about this!

Cons

Going back to some of the previous reviews, there is definitely a poor work culture in the office. Even though "some" (I don't mean all, just a few) of the current employees are helpful, there is a lack of appreciation of work from the senior people. Work life balance is so bad throughout the year that it's laughable. I have friends who work at top tier firms who were with me on this when i told them about the things that happen within the firm.

Not a Good Company

Pros

Most people are friendly, decent pay for minimal work

Cons

The Dedham Group is a glorified market research firm and, even then, isn't quite as useful. Most of the work is mindless web searching and formatting in Excel...even at the higher level. You'll spend hours reaching out to doctors on LinkedIn for surveys and, if not enough doctors respond, the Partners will ask you to falsify survey data and lie to the client. Yeah, you read that right. Employee turnover is crazy high with people only staying because they'll get promoted for complicity. This leads to managers with poor leadership skills and little to no consulting competency. If you have another offer, work elsewhere. If TDG is your only offer, take it, but keep an eye open for an exit as soon as you can.
