Pros

Learned how different it is to work in consulting. "Not macht erfinderisch" Not the perfect solutions is what counts. This is not university anymore.

Cons

Tough working conditions. High turnover. A lot of pressure. Really low pay for consulting. Bonus was only a carrot that nobody could get. Salary increase was only with promotion. I jumped to more than two levels in terms of salary by going to the next employer after 10months.

Pros

Alcimed works on a very interesting range of projects within the life sciences space. Their clients are very notable in the space and even though projects can be hard they are also very rewarding. If you are someone that enjoys traveling you can expect relatively frequent trips to France and to client locations across the US (particularly northeast). You generally receive a good amount of freedom to do your work (as long as you get your work done on time). They are heavily invested in to ESG/climate initiatives and they make that a core component of their values.

Cons

I don’t appreciate their stance on wfh, being that it will never move 1.5 days from home. I think having a half day is generally not useful since you still have to go to office at some point. I think they generally offer lower pay compared to other consulting companies, but to be fair, comparing them to a big 4 consulting company may not be the best comp.
