Pros

Some great clients, appreciative of all the help and hard work you put in.

Cons

Leadership only cares that you’re billable and that’s it. Raises and bonuses do not reflect the efforts put in to the firm and are not in line with the market. Constantly staff folks as individual contributors at clients in full time roles, but also expects them to be heavily involved in the office culture, coaching and business development. I’m sorry but we are better off working in industry where we’re compensated for our work and not expected to have a full time job and then more work internally. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze anymore

Pros

Reasonable hours, PTO, and WLB.

Cons

The founder left a couple years ago, new private equity took over, and the employee friendly culture slowly evaporated. Now it's just another consulting company. Not the worst place in the world, but the culture that gathered all those 5 star reviews years ago no longer exists today.

CrossCountry Consulting Response

Thank you for sharing your insights. We appreciate your candid feedback. While we’ve experienced changes, we remain committed to providing competitive PTO and a healthy work-life balance. We’ll continue striving to create a positive environment for our employees.

Pros

1) Great work life balance and flexibility - It's a nice break if you come from a big four background, the work isn't difficult and you will typically get out of work early.

Cons

1) Leadership - I found local leadership to be very weak, they don't inspire, lead or appear to have a clear strategy. Indecisiveness is rampant and there is a clear lack of transparency between leaders and staff. 2) Professional Development - They don't actually care about your professional development, at the end of the day all they only care about is utilization. So don't be surprised if you end up working in service lines outside those you were promised and on work that doesn't inspire you. 3) Compensation - If you join the company from overseas be aware that you will be significantly underpaid compared to market. It's known that big four offer a better total comp package.
