Fantastic team, culture, and projects

Pros

AHEAD has an amazing team and an upbeat culture. I've worked across most of our service lines and have been impressed by everyone I've met. We have earned trust and collaborate closely with awesome clients and partners on interesting projects. AHEAD is doing some innovative work, especially with cloud, enterprise service management (ESM), and DevOps. Compensation and work-life balance are above average.

Cons

While everyone is smart and motivated, AHEAD suffers from silos like most growing consultancies. Most engineers work within a single practice and geo, so there's not enough cross-training. We still re-invent the wheel too often. The internal learning curve is higher than I've seen at other firms, but everyone is happy to help if you ask.

Pros

Only a few weeks in, but it is clear there is a ton of talent here. Very cool work being done throughout many of the groups. I'm expecting to learn quite a bit. Also, the senior management seems very down to earth and knowledgeable about the industry. They definitely drive a family atmosphere from the top levels all the way down.

Cons

Hours can be long but that was stressed in the interview process so it was to be expected.
