Pros

I really loved this company from the start from onboarding and the like Competitive base salary/decent bonus structure especially if you're in the preferred circles. Comprehensive benefits package: the basics are covered. Generous PTO policy on paper though actually taking it can be a challenge depending on your case load and leadership's mood. Strategic work in high-stakes situations. You’ll see real business challenges just don’t expect the same level of transparency internally.

Cons

Despite the shiny marketing and constant talk of being a meritocracy, the structure is deeply hierarchical. Promotions are sluggish and unevenly distributed. For such a small group, the culture feels cold and fragmented. Mid-level leaders are kept in a holding pattern with little ability to shape projects or drive initiatives. If you’re not part of the trusted few, expect to be heavily managed, second-guessed, and underutilized. Also a striking disconnect between what’s preached in internal communications and what’s practiced.

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
