Pros
Fantastic partners - experienced leaders who genuinely care about mentorship and helping you grow as a consultant Superb projects - only high calibre strategy work Unparalleled growth opportunities - being part of a young office means you get the chance to step-up and grow much quicker than in other more established organisations
Cons
Workload - typical of consulting and tends to trend upwards of 12-14 hours per day Remuneration - significantly lower than MBB Young team - difficulty delivering projects given that the team is relatively young
Advice to Management
Keep up the great work in maintaining a distinctive culture but focus on improving remuneration. Otherwise there will be issues around retention once people start looking for other higher paying opportunities.

EY-Parthenon2019-06-24"Great people. Work-life balance can be non-existent at times."
StarStarStarStarStarI have been working at EY-Parthenon full-time
Pros
The people really are great. It's a fun, collegial environment with a lot of "smart, nice, driven" young people. And the compensation is very competitive.
Cons
Constant stream of due diligence projects can be a grind, and make work-life non-existent.
Advice to Management
Add one more junior people to teams. It would solve a lot of problems.

Pros
- People are very interested in your learning and development; as a consultant, you are the product, so expect investment into your growth - People are actually nice and caring, as advertised.. a lot of commitment to building culture, especially in smaller offices
Cons
- Work hours are long, expect burnout over time - In many situations you will be a case-taker, not a case-chooser, and will be subject to the most common industries represented by your office
Advice to Management
Do not burn out your best people, just because this is known to be a high turnover industry does not mean you should take this for granted.
