Pros

Very bright individuals (in general) and above Big4 salary.

Cons

Terrible hours (driven by Directors) - often 'first to arrive last to leave' mentality justified by rates. Very experienced staff end up being simple ppt jockeys at exorbitant rates. No transparency in career progression. No defined / repeatable methods for anything and nobody to sponsor such initiatives.

Pros

less hierarchal in nature than other consulting firms

Cons

seen a lot of off-handed comments about directors from other managing directors in the presence of SVPs and VPs when an employee had put in notice. Not nice. not a very diverse place to work
