Pros

Great brand name, opportunity to work with SMEs and generally the best in the industry, at all levels you’re encouraged to go out and seek opportunities, if you’re lucky you’ll be able to easily build a circle of people who support and will vouch for you. WLB is amazing.

Cons

Very disorganised from the graduate scheme to internal processes. Some people only volunteer to manage to boost their brand nothing else - lots of unfairness and politics in the London office which at times can be exhausting to navigate. Little to no support when things get tough unless you have a really understanding team and people manager. DEI activities are few and far between.

Pros

I am a consultant through a firm acquired by Korn Ferry and have had a great experience with both the firm (Salo) and with Korn Ferry as a parent company. Great to have benefits and PTO as a consultant and great training and resources available - good communication as well!

Cons

Transitional period during acquisition had a few bumps but nothing major and all ironed out as more time has gone on.

Pros

This is an RPO with many clients. It all depends on who you work with. I enjoy team. Very collaborative and supportive team and management.

Cons

Workload is insane. Bi-monthly pay.
