      Good WLB but company leadership is confused

      Associate consultant, total economic impact
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Decent WLB -Work was not super challenging, very template-heavy -Efforts were made to define boundaries of AC role on TEI team while I was there -Exposure to tech clients, mainly marketing execs

      Cons

      -Some of the consultants I supported really struggled and that burden of work fell on me for a very long time -First manager was great, second manager was less experienced and struggled to communicate my situation to her manager -Quality of client deliverables on TEI team not always great or consistent -Company leadership seemed really confused, with high turnover on exec team, ambiguous new products that even sales team did not understand, etc -Salary and promotion freeze in place when I left

      Healthy culture w/ business challenges

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The people and the culture are first-rate. I work with smart, talented, passionate colleagues who will do anything to help me. Very collaborative atmosphere. You'll read a lot of comments about the hybrid work policy (three days/week in the office) - it's definitely an emotional issue. I like the flexibility to work from home on Mondays and Fridays and I'm energized by being with colleagues in the office the other days. Our current policy seems pretty much in line with what most companies are doing these days.

      Cons

      You'll read a lot of negative reviews here - people are frustrated after three straight years of poor financial performance. Those are legitimate concerns. But this remains one of the healthier work cultures you'll find. It's intellectually stimulating, and people are genuinely kind. A lot of the so-called "culture" issues will be rectified by getting the company back to growth.
