Greed and mediocrity

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

When people are dissatisfied with their workplace and managers, they tend to share experiences a lot. That creates a bond and you can make friends pretty fast. Made a lot of friends for life on this job. None of them works there anymore.

Cons

Still the worst employer I have ever had the misfortune to work for. Greed and mediocrity seem to be the top traits to get you fast tracked to Managing Consultant position. The rest of the people are expendable and the Consultancy does not care for their career development whatsoever

Business outlook

Pros

Generally good and smart people. Friday night drinks. Nice office with views People and Culture monthly catch ups and counseling session (although this is subjective and unfortunately depends on the client lead)

Cons

Lots of politics and small talks. It is the norm to speak behind people's back. This starts with top management and across the whole company which will affect your reputation and negatively influence your work environment and progression. Greed was always an issue, however, it became worse after the newly introduced partnership model which is taking it to a whole new level where you are just viewed in dollar sign. Naturally, the average salary continues to be below the industry average. Favoritism is rampant and is given to some disputable characters. While some managers are good with clients and teams they are not given the rewards they deserve if they are not part of the clique, resulting in "good talkers" and underachievers being rewarded. Overall it is a place that has some good talent which is under-utilised and not rewarded the average market rate.

A very distressing experience

Pros

Some fantastic people work there; great new and modern office space including a pool table and harbour views; try to create 'fun' with drinks on Fridays and provide food for training sessions.

Cons

There is a lot of very poorly handled and hypocritical politics within the company; management use consultants as pawns, rarely even remembering their names; gossip is rife and significantly spread around by management; for internal office staff, hard work is often not recognised appropriately or valued, or someone else takes credit for it; some members of management can be very disrespectful and belittle those 'below' them; It is not a good place to work as a female with sexually inappropriate comments being far too common.
