Pros

* The caliber of people here is higher than average * for the first year I learned a lot * compensation is good * hours are good if you work quickly * the service ZS provides to clients is valuable and well executed

Cons

* Too much micromanagement. I think some people do need to be guided, but for those who can figure it out on their own managers should give more freedom to create and do their own thing. * Projects are really repetitive and you don't learn much once you get over the initial hump. If you want to go home at 5, this is your place. If you want to develop your skills, I'd suggest looking at other jobs.

Pros

* Very smart, friendly people * Strong brand and credibility within healthcare industry * Many leadership opportunties * Decent pay and benefits * Great starting point for a career in healthcare - any other job will be a breeze after this

Cons

* Very long work hours. Be prepared to cancel vacations, pull all-nighters, and work on weekends and holidays. Plus, your Managers will expect you to be enthusiastic about it. * They "reward" their strongest people by dumping more and more work on them in an effort to give them "challenges" and "developmental opportunties." Then they hold you back from promotion when your performance slips because you were working 80hrs a week and getting no sleep. * Lots of pressure to use the India teams in order to cut costs, which results in weeks on end of 11pm calls with India. * Excessive requests to lead internal initiatives, many of which seem to exist solely so people can say they led a training - nevermind whether the training was actually useful or necessary. * No brand recognition outside of healthcare. Do not let them fool you into thinking that this will carry the same weight on your resume as one of the bigger strategy consulting firms.
