Decent consulting company, lower pay

Senior consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Friendly coworkers, interesting work, work from home options

Cons

Company was bought by Bain Capital and has taken away many perks for employees to save money. Company says it cares about its people and wants prestige, yet doesn't seem to care about retaining employees and pays much less than comparable consulting firms. They're flirting with RTO but the office space is open layout and completely unconducive to work since everyone around you is on calls all day.
