Pros

Decent model A few good practitioners OK with Small, medium business

Cons

Huge EGO at Top. Numerous sub-contractors have not been paid for work performed, even when the client has paid GrowthPoint. Leadership ineffective and not trustworthy Too many hands in the cookie jar and with the client. No repeat business, clients stay away

Pros

Great concept for an organisation that has attracted some award-winning talent Seem to have a great list of potential lead driving organisations Well priced compared to large consulting organisations. Early diagnostic tools are basic but effective.

Cons

They don't seem to be able to close or qualify quality clients. Leadership has a large ego and little ability to listen to clients or principal consultants. They are not aligned to the new use of technologies and have very basic level consulting capabilities. They are money focused to a point of leading customers astray of what they truly need. The senior partner and founder consistently undermine his consultants with his significant inferiority complex. The communication is abysmal for such a small organisation. The are very untrustworthy and have not paid many of their past consultants. They don't know how to market to get them to the next level. The 2nd partner is just a "lap dog" for the egocentric founder and will do whatever he is told be it good judgment, honest, or appropriate. He has no listening skills, be it client based or with the team. It is a toxic organisation. The pitch to senior consultants sounds like a great idea for interesting work on a fractional basis but the reality is far from the truth. Stay clear of this organisation to work for or contract with.
