Pros

culture is great, partners are very friendly, consultants are smart, and work is intellectually challenging. Global mobility is offered to consultants

Cons

brand name is weak outside F S and company is fairly young hence senior leadership is not as experienced with grey hair as you would want

Pros

Relatively young firm, easy to meet new people and make friends with the younger consultants in the office.

Cons

Just to set things clear, this review only applies to the Financial Services side of Oliver Wyman. I do not have first-hand information on the situation at the former Mercer Management. Horrible work-life balance, unfair review system, BORING work (I mean really boring, back-office risk management type of projects). Please, if you are at a decent school and have some brains, do not waste your time interviewing for OW-FS. It offers no exit opportunities to better jobs.
