FTI Consulting reviews

Very convoluted and often ill explained structure and career advancement opportunities. The different structures are not merged in properly and there is rarely any overlapping business generated. The mid level management is non existent leading to communication and skill gaps within the heirarchy. It is also the case that most of the senior management comes from a educational background and therefore treats the job/employees as one would in a grduate school thereby leading to unprofessional behavior.

travel and pay. On average a consultant will only make between 10% and 15% of what he bills to the client. The business model is more about keeping the rainmakers and letting the young talent attrition right out the door. Therefore, the folks in sr. mgmt positions that stick around are not usually that good at what they do, but rather there because they have no other options. The work is monotonus and often cookie cutter like any other consulting firm but even more so because it is structured around the bankruptcy law. This makes it especially important to work for good people.
