Pros
Exceptional at selling the firm's strategy (full service 'Human Capital') to capitalize on accelerating market opportunity (knowledge worker talent). Many talented people but, in the long run, disheartening to see many of them adjust to what the culture requires to succeed.
Cons
Observable, pervasive and consistent lack of integrity (They tell their clients to do one thing/ They do the opposite in their own company) It is the worst culture I've ever seen up close and this includes working in the financial, legal and pharmaceutical industries for over 20-years A very bad place to start your career because you will acquire beliefs and habits about how to progress your career that will most certainly get in the way elsewhere. Better to go to Deloitte, McKinsey, BCG. Buyer beware: Do your research and distinguish between paid propaganda the company puts out and agnostic resources like this
