Pros

Open culture, great colleagues, entrepreneurial atmosphere, self-leadership and freedom to develop. OW offers great freedom for the individual to pick up tasks that will develop the company and oneself, e.g. participation in recruiting activities, business development, IC generation, etc. The corporate culture is open and balanced, it feels to some extend that you are working with friends as the team is young, driven and like-minded.

Cons

Work-life balance. But still benchmark among top consulting firms The mix of industries is not extremely high and depends on the location of the office. However, with the new vertical BU structure this might be changing soon.

Pros

Good culture, solid pay, good benefits

Cons

Same as with most big companies. HR a little too focused on DEI and feel good inclusion initiatives over things that matter to most employees and clients. Top management messaging is generic and seems forced. But all senior leadership seem fairly genuine and good people vs. hyper focused on dollars alone.
