Pros

Great consultants - talented and high energy teams with the opportunity to learn if you're lucky enough to get on one of the few remaining projects

Cons

Bloated admin/management staff and infrastructure, disengaged management team, no discernible plan on how to win new work in a competitive environment. changes in management early in the year seem to have made the situation worse and key client service leaders have left or talking about leaving. Pay plan makes it difficult with little work to come close to the promised bonuses. As other posters say most of the new work is staff augmentation which seems to be the direction this firm is taking.

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.
