Transparency is great, structure etc. Pay and dedication to employees. Inflation happening they just gave everyone a raise.
Cons
Sales focused, consulting can get very busy as they pick up clients and then finish onboarding them. Then the consultants are left to pick it up. I do see them hiring more though, so hopefully that is the plan to help.

Thank you for the feedback - we certainly are dedicated to our team members and aim to put the team first in our decision-making.
We have been hiring a lot lately and I'm excited about the caliber of team members we've added to the group. We've had a good run of sales lately and I understand that puts pressure on the team to staff projects and get ready for the challenges of new clients. Our roadmap process has made it easier to learn more about those clients before we start projects and we need to continue to focus on the sales to project handoffs.

Thank you for the review - we appreciate the positive feedback!
Eric Newell - CEO
- A few genuinely talented individuals who care about their work and try to do the right thing.
- Exposure to complex projects—though access is tightly controlled by an inner circle.
- Strong branding and external messaging that gives the illusion of a progressive, people-first culture.
Cons
- A protected clique monopolizes premium projects while others are handed troubled clients and projects in a troubled state
- PIPs are weaponized—not used for development, but as quiet termination tools with little to no prior feedback. HR is not neutral here,
- Micromanagement is extreme, with certain managers monitoring every move and relying on informal “reporting networks” to control narratives.
- Confidential conversations are routinely breached and used against employees.
- Leadership enables dysfunction, rewarding loyalty over competence and protecting toxic behavior.
-Other backgrounds and leadership experience is routinely dismissed or ignored, especially if it challenges the status quo.
- Culture punishes transparency and rewards silence. Success depends more on politics than performance.

I certainly respect your opinion and I have heard concerns about what projects people get assigned to but I struggle to relate with the other feedback.
We can’t get into the specifics of individual performance situations, but the experience described here is not typical or aligned with our practices. Our managers routinely get high marks from their teams for partnership and trust, and we have a thorough performance management process that prioritizes our values and acting with integrity. Transparency is a hallmark of our organization (with the exception of performance issues) and we offer many opportunities for people to voice their opinion, ask questions, etc. I do anonymous Q&A conversations every quarter and I answer the questions brought forward so there's always an opportunity to share feedback.
If you're willing, I'd love to hear any direct feedback from you - send me an email and I'd be happy to engage in a conversation about what we could do better.
