Pros

Work/Life Balance: It's very rare to work more than 40-45 hrs per week. Most consultants are efficient enough to get their work done without having to work OT Company Culture: Great camaraderie. Everyone in the company seems to get along with each other. Company events are very social and quite fun.

Cons

Work not Challenging: For better or for worse, most of the work is staff augmentation. The firm is not large enough to staff a large scale project leveraging multiple teams Cliquish: There's definitely an "in-crowd" that force feeds company pride down your throat. Performance Reviews include a section that measures how "involved" you are with attending/planning company events.

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
