Pros

Relaxed, collegial and social culture with intellectually engaging work and fantastic opportunities. Consultants rapidly take on more responsibility, particularly when we are super busy. Vacations are honored and consultants have the ability to take unpaid leave in addition to their paid vacation.

Cons

Like all consulting firms, the hours can be long and the travel can be grueling. Oliver Wyman probably involves more travel that its competitors since we operate regionally rather than locally. (The benefit is greater connectedness across offices.)

Pros

Good culture, solid pay, good benefits

Cons

Same as with most big companies. HR a little too focused on DEI and feel good inclusion initiatives over things that matter to most employees and clients. Top management messaging is generic and seems forced. But all senior leadership seem fairly genuine and good people vs. hyper focused on dollars alone.
