Pros

Huron can be a fast-paced job with the ability to advance in your career quickly based on performance - but you have to seek those opportunities, get to know your practice leadership and ensure that you have someone in senior leadership keeping your best interests in mind. Huron is flexible about vacations and scheduling and enabling the individual to schedule their time as a professional - not always checking up on you every moment. Lastly, the company is very supportive of philanthropic interests.

Cons

I understand from working on training initiatives, etc. that feelings are very different across practices. There does not appear to be a sense of organization or community from highest levels of management. One's loyalty is to their practice and not "Huron" at large. It is also very easy to have young people fall off track and get "lost" if they do not align with someone in senior leadership to watch out for them. Favorites sky rocket and others are left behind. It is not enough to be smart and dedicated - you must also know to self-promote - but that may be a product of the consulting world at large.

Pros

Huron provides excellent learning opportunities and robust leadership training. The environment offers plenty of excitement, and the compensation and benefits packages feel fair. I also greatly appreciated the company's culture around community involvement, which allowed me to give back locally.

Cons

While the day-to-day work can be engaging, the organization severely stumbles when it comes to employee support and compliance. Specifically, management failed to go through the ADA good faith interactive process when accommodations were required. Furthermore, there is a troubling internal culture where calling out bad practices—even when those practices could directly hurt clients—results in being cut out rather than heard.
