INTERVIEW - Anonymous employee Arryve Employee Review

The success you achieve at ARRYVE is proportional to the quality and quantity of the effort you put in. This is a pro for those who put the effort in and a con for those who don't. ARRYVE is an amazing company because it not only encourages it consultants to improve and succeed, but it provides the vehicles that can lead them there. At that point, it's on each consultant to seize the opportunity or not. These vehicles include: **Partner involvement on projects - At times, reporting to a partner may be overwhelming, but you gain incredible experience each time. I have truly grown the most during those projects. **Training/Certifications - ARRYVE pays to have you learn more about pretty much anything you choose that will advance your business acumen. Your learnings not only help on your client projects, but these trainings/certifications are transferable to other jobs... and the partners know that! **ARRYVE Culture - On most every post (positive or negative) you hear about how unique and amazing the culture is at ARRYVE. It's true. The consultants here are motivators and a great resource if you are willing to reach out to them.

Like any consulting company, the consultant's performance is based on both internal and external performance. The main con I can think of has been addressed in other posts, and it's based around internal work. Yes, there is required internal work that needs to be completed if you want to get a high internal performance rating. But, I truly find that the internal work always links to both firm goals and personal competencies you choose to improve. This connects with some of the pros mentioned above: you will work hard, but you will grow.

- Some good, strategic projects but typically staffed at higher levels of the firm. This is beginning to change slowly as of late. - Leaders hire GREAT people for the most part. Most people at the firm have varied backgrounds and are generally smart and driven to succeed. - Some internal work is very much worthwhile and value added (charity engagements, some internal company improvement projects)

- A lot of staff augmentation projects for lower levels (Analyst, Associate, Some Manager levels) - Over 80% of revenue via one client, though ARRYVE is beginning to expand their client base slowly. - Partners need to learn to accept feedback and have indirectly created a culture of fear if employees don't agree with the way they lay things out. - Working from home no matter the situation, seems to be looked down upon greatly by management and operations. - Internal trainings are often times not value added, but are required in order to succeed at the firm - No visibility to how raises are earned. If you receive a raise at all, you'll never know how or why, which makes it hard to understand when you are performing well or need to improve. - Internal work is required for promotions and raises, but often time take up more time and are treated as more important than client engagements by management.
