Pros

They have significant health benefits

Cons

The workplace environment is marked by nepotism and a pervasive white savior complex. Many Senior/Director hires are friends of management who lack the necessary skills and emotional intelligence to lead teams effectively. The recently acquired company appears to be taking over leadership, but the strategic direction remains unclear. I recommend leaving once you’ve gained all you can from the role/company. There is a noticeable level of microaggression from white female managers. While I can respect tough leadership when it’s backed by competence, we’re dealing with senior directors who struggle with basic tasks, like embedding links in PDFs or PowerPoint presentations. The disparity between the quality of work and the entitlement is glaring. In one instance, they developed entire campaigns focused on Black communities without involving any Black or Brown team members. If there is diversity on the team—whether Black, Brown, or LGBTQIA+—know that your contributions may only be sought during certain months, such as February, September, or June.

Good place to start out

Pros

Good place to work, especially for younger career professionals just starting out, mission-oriented, kind people, inclusive and considerate teams, good work life balance. I think depends on the division but supervisors supportive in general.

Cons

Can feel micro managed at times at a junior level position due to top down structure of senior level employees making the decisions, assigning folks to projects, etc. Billing codes also contribute to this, every minute of your day has to be accounted for, but I guess that's how consulting works. However, overall positive and mission oriented work environment.
