Pros

Good amount of time off. 15 days, PTO. 5 are mandatorily used over Christmas break but hey, at least you have Christmas off! Plus 2 weeks sick time. Some of the teams are very professional and take care of work in an organized structured manner.

Cons

Too many company politics. Certain managers do not know how to lead or make projects awful. The head of the company's words of wisdom are empty buzz words meant to make the company look good in Canada. Diversity and Inclusion training is pushed but feels extremely disingenuous. Actual PoCs will know what I mean. If this is your first job, maybe stick it out until you get your PE. Be very wary of in-house work that is advertised as fitting for you. There are some great opportunities but you can easily be sucked into something non-applicable to your major/coursework and with ridiculous expectations.

Pros

I found that most colleagues were genuinely passionate about the work being done and it’s a much more manageable pace for those coming from mainstream consulting firms. There’s a strong adherence to the company’s “manifesto” and core values that verges on corny at times.

Cons

The company itself is trying to do too much at once and it has led to a lot of turnover and restructuring in the last few years. While it’s not Big 4 there are high expectations for productivity and billing to clients. Pay is often not in line with these expectations and the manifesto doesn’t pay bills. Benefits are also not competitive with other larger consulting firms. They didn’t even have a formal parental leave program until 2024. Employee development is very self directed as opposed to manager driven which could be beneficial to some but leads to very inconsistent leadership development and mentorship opportunities across the firm.
