      Laid-back but low-pay and no-culture

      Consultant/analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      People are easy to work with, good work-life balance, lots of different areas to gain experience in, telecommuting

      Cons

      Zero office culture, no career advancement opportunities (esp. for junior staff), major emphasis on "billable hours," very little in the way of training/career development, pay is relatively low....basically, senior management doesn't care about their workers enough to motivate them to do good work.

      Good place to work and build a career

      Consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good work-life balance. Ability to work from home. You get the chance to work in different practices across the company and pursue your interests. Interesting (and growing number of) clients and projects. A growing company so it's an interesting time to be there. The US business is investing heavily in the European business as can be seen with the new offices and the growing number of staff.

      Cons

      Pay is low compared to other consultancies and public sector organisations. Graduates (even those with master's degrees) who start at Research Assistant level get paid around £20k a year. Management is very bureaucratic and a lot of people's hands are tied due to decisions being made in the US.

      Poor management, low pay and little reward for going over and beyond.

      Pros

      For the most part like the people I work with.

      Cons

      Poor management, no leadership, collaborative environment leads to lack of direction, poor communication, few rewards for working hard and delivering exemplary results. Known in the industry to be cheap in terms of pay.
