Pros

Work from home, essentially make my own hours, motivated colleagues, average/ below average pay. Ok pay - see cons

Cons

average pay for USA but have been assigned to long-term 1.5+ year projects where I am the only BA and therefore do more work and should get paid more. In traditional consultancy there are more BA roles involved. Also, as a remote employee in the US I have never met an employee of just in person and I hardly have a relationship with my colleagues / interact outside of work related meetings (no personal level interaction).

Pros

The company is already shifting from services to products and platforms business, with the CEO driving the change directly. This transition is visible and is steep. The upside to this transformation is the company already creating meaningful opportunities for people to grow new skills and take on more strategic and value-added work. The key is to lean in and make full use of the resources available, including client universities, hack-a-thons, ideathons, and skill transformation programs, to stay ahead. For internal talent, the opportunities in product, platform development, and consulting are abundant, across both existing offerings and new solutions.

Cons

the organization is going through a painful transition unlike anything it has experienced in its 26-year history; while this change is necessary to win in the market, stronger support through the transition is an area where the company can improve and focus.

Thank you for such a thoughtful perspective. It’s encouraging to hear that the shift toward a product and platform-led organization is visible and creating meaningful opportunities for our USsociates to build new skills and take on more strategic work. Enabling this kind of growth is a key priority for us, and we’re glad to see the impact of initiatives like learning programs, ideathons, and hackathons coming through. We also recognize that transitions can be challenging, and providing support through the journey remains a priority. Your point on staying grounded in UST’s values truly resonates. Our values of humanity, humility and integrity continue to guide us as we evolve. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.
