Pros

I worked at another top-notch strategy consulting firm prior to ghSMART (think BCG, McKinsey, Bain). When I worked there, I thought I would never work at another firm that did such great client work and had such an amazing team. When I joined ghSMART I was amazed to find that it created even more impact for clients and has an even better team. And to top it off, ghSMART truly cares about it's people. Leadership and the partners want you to be the best you can be, to choose the career path at ghSMART that you want, and to do so with a model where you have flexibility on the type and amount of work you take on. ghSMART truly has the potential to be the McKinsey or Bain equivalent of leadership consulting.

Cons

Most people at ghSMART love our virtual model. However, if you are someone that absolutely must work in person with other people on a daily place, it might not be the place for you.

Pros

- I get to do the leadership and organization work I love, every day - We get to work at the highest levels of influence (CEOs, boards) with the most prominent clients in the world - Colleagues are genuinely kind and collaborative, there are no politics or backstabbing

Cons

- A good chunk of the work is solo, which creates a lot of flexibility but is a switch from traditional consulting - The remote culture isn't for everyone although the firm does a pretty amazing job of bringing people together. And when people are together the are remarkably present

Pros

There are many pros to working for ghSMART - 1. The team - people at ghSMART are amazing, supportive, and genuinely care for each other and want each other to win and be successful. Hands down, the most unique, intelligent, caring group of people I've ever worked with. 2. The culture allows you to be yourself and work within the freedom and flexibility the company prides itself on. I have never worked anywhere where it's encouraged to take a field trip with your child, make appointments during the day, enjoy dinner with your family every evening, and the list goes on - that's the ghSMART way! 3. Working fully remote has been such a fantastic bonus to working at ghSMART. I still feel connected, I get to see my colleagues in person from time to time, yet my work/life balance is the best it's been in my entire career. 4. The leadership team is available to connect with; they listen to their teams. The C-Suite team is newly formed and makes an incredible lineup of dynamic, approachable leaders.

Cons

There are none that I can see.
