Great company with great work culture

Pros

This is a great company with great work environment. Not cut-throat like huge consulting firms but sizable enough to receive all the perks of working for a well-established firm. Management promotes work-life balance and actually practices it. Of course, there are crazy proposal seasons and 50+ hr weeks, but it's rare and you usually have stable working schedule and hours.

Cons

With the more relaxed working environment comes less compensation. For me, it's definitely worth it to not have to stress over work 24/7.

Pros

Flexible hours, decent benefits, good office locations

Cons

As with most consulting companies, a lot of overtime is expected and there is low job security due to lay-offs

Thanks for the review! We are happy to hear that you are benefiting from flexible hours. We disagree regarding low job security as we feel we’re not your typical consulting company. Our turnover is a couple points below our peer group and we have fared better over the years. We encourage you to reach out to a member of our Human Resources team to talk more about your concerns.
