Great people esp. at junior level. Unclear annual compensation review - Consultant Kearney Employee Review

Pros

Great people especially at manager level and below. Intelligent, sociable and genuinely want to help fellow colleagues.

Cons

At senior level, some partners are difficult to deal with. Career progression depends on support from partners and who your mentor is. Compensation is decided during annual review and can be totally misaligned with project(s) performance during the year. Doing well in each project engagement throughout the year may not translate to good annual review and therefore, zero bonus!
