Great place to learn and grow

Pros

The job is very challenging so you are constantly learning and growing, which puts you on a much faster trajectory. The people you work with are very smart and driven. Everyone is approachable including the management. It’s very collaborative environment where everyone wants you to be successful. The company also invests a lot in you as people are the most important asset to a consulting firm. The impact you make here is a lot more visible than in a big company. You get to define your career here because there are so many opportunities to touch every aspect of the business. Overall, if you enjoy challenges and problem-solving, and are eager to learn and grow, this is the right place.

Cons

This is not a typical nine to five job. It can be stressful sometimes because you are working on the most complex equity plans in the country and working against deadlines.

A Great Place to Start and Make a Career!

Pros

Company’s priority is the growth and professional development of its employees. It truly cares about its people and provides a lot of support and training to develop them. From day 1 the job provides a very wide range of opportunities to learn valuable skills - SAS programming, client communication, project management for many Fortune 100 companies, SBC accounting, etc. Work is challenging but rewarding. Completing large projects and solving complex problems results in a sense of accomplishment. Equity Methods has a good culture and all employees are extremely smart! Office atmosphere is quite fun and social! Work hours can get up to 60 only during busy times, but the long-term average per week is reasonable (in the 50s).

Cons

Flexibility is required; There is a lot to learn and you can grow very fast by being involved in challenging and interesting projects, but sometimes this means irregular work hours and push yourself out of the comfort zone. Sometimes calls with clients can be very early in the mornings or late at night. Large corporations have offices offices around the world – Switzerland, Singapore, Brazil, Russia, etc. and scheduling calls with international people can require odd meeting times.

Pros

-Great working environment with a lot of freedom and flexibility -Co-workers are genuine and incredibly smart -Great experience earner

Cons

-Senior Management who no longer work on processes seem to not understand that complexity and work load have increased per client exponentially from when they worked on these clients. Meaning they ask far more from associates than anyone's work capacity could reasonably allow. -Associates are given frankly poor training by disinterested managers/consultants who would rather be working on their own clients than teaching associates. -Mentors and managers often have no clue how the associates they are supervising are doing. Leading to performance adjustments to associates often coming far too late. -Pay is bad for the amount and complexity of work (60+ hour work weeks with incredibly demanding clients). At the consultant level this gets worse as the high attrition of associates forces consultants to do associate work on top of more advanced consultant work.
