Pros

Great benefits and pay for back-office employees Generally kind and considerate colleagues

Cons

Leadership fails to "practice what they preach" Laid off front-line consultants during pandemic after asking them to take pay cuts so that they wouldn't have to be laid off. Leadership chose to keep back-office (e.g., office managers, on payroll and hire incoming college hires, while firing consultants who were doing billable work and bringing in revenue for the company. Many experienced employees leaving due to poor management decisions. Below market comp structure Misleading "Equity" plan in the form of an ESOP

Pros

Strong launchpad for early career consultants. Great exposure to varied clients, tech stacks, and industries within your first couple of years. Smart, driven colleagues and a structured mentorship model that genuinely invests in your growth. Clear promotion path with well-defined expectations at each level. If you're motivated and self-directed, you can grow faster here than at most places.

Cons

You work for it. Hours can run long depending on the project, and utilization expectations are real. A lot of your trajectory depends on the project you get staffed to and how well you advocate for yourself. Not the place if you want a predictable 40 hour week or a hands-off environment. Burnout is a risk if you don't set your own boundaries early.
