Amazing culture, incredibly nice people (somewhat hard to find elsewhere in consulting), the Company offers significant occasion to join (very) global projects. Working hours can vary, but overall acceptable.
Cons
It is a boutique, with a clear German core. It is easy to get stuck in repetitive streams (private equity practice, transformation/ cost cutting activities).

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We really appreciate your honesty and are glad to hear that you really enjoy working with the people here at goetzpartners.
Tons of opportunity, Fast growth, Great Culture, awesome Coworkers.
The company recently opened the New York office, their first office in the United States. GP has a startup vibe with the backing and resources of a highly respected European Consulting firm.
Cons
Majority of the company is in Germany, can be a little difficult at times to take care of internals (401K, Expense reimbursement)
Great company events; tight-knit and fun among juniors (go on vacation together, hang out outside of work); smart and engaging employees; international atmosphere; compensation is good
Cons
Clear favoritism and extremely political in the more senior levels; incredibly misogynistic culture - pressure for women to act a certain way or be labeled uptight/stiff; awkward market positioning often leading to a lack of projects (too good for small projects, but too small for good projects); projects limited to a handful of industries and key clients
