Pros

Good people, decent pay, no travel

Cons

*had no idea what to do with the associate consultants. I and many others spent way too much time on the bench with little guidance. I got great performance reviews and was still laid off. I feel like I didn’t even have a proper chance to prove myself since I spent so much time on bench despite constant networking. And they are still hiring associate consultants after having fired most of them? It’s insulting

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
