Pros

You get to pick your favourite seat. There are plenty due to high attrition.

Cons

A "management team" made up of charlatans. The company is rife with confidentiality leaks from the leaders who have been trusted to safeguard this information. Senior members of the team are unprofessional and infantile, with zero respect for colleagues, behaving in ways more befitting of a young child. Serious issues are constantly swept under the carpet, it's amazing that no one trips on the carpet going in. Toxic culture, expect bad behavior to be rewarded and celebrated and rule books to be tossed out of the window. Attrition has skyrocketed in the last one year and it's no wonder, as no one enjoys working in a nest of snakes. Constant charade of a being a big recruitment firm, but still lacks the resources and tools that big players have. Basically operating with a provincial mindset with every team guarding their own village well and no real interest in team work.

Pros

The new office is absolutely amazing.

Cons

-HUGE problems with management in 2018 that resulted in some good Directors leaving the company. They were replaced with terrible directors who ONLY push KPIs. -Most consultants are so angry. They will fight with you and use profanity when you stumble upon a client they might have engaged many years ago. -The starting salary is among the lowest in the industry (I guess it all went to the rent of the building) -Highly Political -Sexual harassment is rampant in this company. AVOID at all cost!

Pros

- Some consultants are very strong - Our new office is nice. The kitchen is big and bright. Location is good and many nearby amenities.

Cons

- Very political - Widespread sexual harassment happening at management level. - Everyone perceived as a flight risk will get a promotion as a retention strategy. No clear path for promotion. - The management team writes fake positive reviews on Glassdoor under "CDS" (previous company name) to prop up their tarnished public image, which is not fair to external jobseekers. - The company has become the laughing stock of the industry
