Pros
- Highly Motivated Co-Workers - Good Working Space for Freshers as there is a steep learning curve.
Cons
- I’m-always-right attitude among managers: no matter how wrong they are, they never admit mistakes and always blame employees. - Lack of new opportunities: they hire smart talent, slow them down over time (since only a handful of managers have consulting experience), then cry about the lack of new work generation. - Mediocrity paradise: GDI loves to compare itself to BCG/McKinsey, but the reality isn’t even close. It sells funders and colleges the illusion of being a government “thought partner,” while operating like a glorified back office for bureaucratic paperwork. The “strategic” work is basically PMU chores any Big 4 firm could crank out. -The CEO wants to create impact, but senior management are mostly yes-men who show little ability to deliver projects or new ideas. -Talk about nation-building—they haven’t even given employee a laptop. -If you’re an MBA grad, do yourself a favor and stay far away. They can’t afford you or your brain.
