Pros

You will work with impressive clients and gain experience.

Cons

The culture is toxic. Most of the company staff is tenured high-level employees coasting through the work week or new associate/associate consultants lacking experience. They have a huge retention problem, especially when it comes to overworked mid-level employees. They say they have hired over 100 people this year, which means that 20-25% of the company hasn't even been working there for a year. You can expect a high stress, disorganized environment with long hours and low pay. Upper management is a lot of talk when it comes to improving these issues, however I never saw any improvements during my time at C Space. Instead they continued to sell business that could be properly staffed. HR's responses to the negative reviews are not what I experienced at C Space and I find the other low starred reviews to be accurate.

C Space Response

These kind of reviews are hard to read. Your experience is upsetting to hear and obviously not the kind of company we want to work at either. While this it isn’t the experience of all, we hear you and recognize that it’s yours and that’s not okay. We definitely don’t claim that C Space is right for everyone – our work environment like all consultancies can be stressful – and sometimes the work requires us to work long hours, though your experience seems to go way beyond that. Admittedly, growth can cause pain at least in the short-term and we’ve been working to improve resourcing all year long, with more work to do, and then making changes to ensure people feel more supported with the right tools and resources to do their jobs well. We also have new feedback tools, so we can stay closer to how we're doing and then how we can continue to make C Space a better place to work. All of this takes time and we have more important work to do there. Thank you for sharing your experience and we truly hope if you’re still at C Space that you work together with your manager, Ops Business Partner or HR to improve your experience and happiness at C Space.
