Pros

The associates and seniors are very nice people. WFH flexibility if you do not have to go to the client.

Cons

MDs will place staff on staff augmentation roles to meet revenue targets. Be prepared to not work on real project-based consulting roles and instead be doing journal entries and reconciliations indefinitely for a client because their accountant quit.

Thank you for taking time to provide feedback. We are glad you enjoyed working with peers and the flexibility to work from home. While our MD’s and business development team strive to bring in work that is dynamic and challenging for our consultants, we are also committed to serving our clients in whatever capacity they require. Thank you for your contributions to Riveron. We wish you success in your future endeavors.

Pros

Decent swag and they have education stipends. Allows remote work which was very appreciated.

Cons

Too political and heavy on finger-pointing rather than collaboration. Blame often falls on inexperienced staff for issues beyond their control, while "who you know" (especially in the Texas office) dictates accountability. Additionally, the US team’s subconscious bias toward the India team creates a counterproductive and unwelcome environment. It ultimately feels like a fend-for-yourself environment. When performance is evaluated, support is limited unless you’ve already proven you can meet management’s demanding, often unrealistic, expectations. This makes it especially difficult for early-career professionals to learn and grow. The focus tends to be more on maximizing billable hours than on development or quality of work. In some cases, there has even been pressure from multiple managers to inflate timesheet entries to improve the appearance of performance and increase client billing, despite work being completed efficiently. These expectations were consistently communicated verbally rather than documented, raising serious ethical concerns and making the situation even more discouraging.
