Pros

Interesting projects and impactful work, people are friendly and really care about client outcomes Real industry experts with real expertise Amazing healthcare coverage - although I think most companies have that these days

Cons

Awful progression process, no commitment to learning and development, no line management training/processes - some people don’t even know who there line managers are! Extremely low salary compared to industry standards Often have to work on multiple projects as the fee is so low (unless you’re an engineer) Poor and lack of internal processes for example even finding case studies for prev. Projects is a nightmare!!!

Thanks for the detailed feedback. I find the impactful projects we do to be a big motivator as well. Learning and development is a big part of our offer here, and we continually review our pay to stay competitive. If you've got concerns, do talk to your manager or local HR manager - Ant

Pros

great supervisor, lots of professional development opportunities

Cons

insane workload and expect you to be available for work 24/7. some teams are drowning and others have no resourcing. layoffs happen completely randomly and they lay off people who are 100 percent billable. profit share is bs and you get nothing as a junior member
