      Nice people and culture, pay ok

      Senior consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It attracted a lot of nice people, and relatively without much office politics. Employees are smart, culture is very open and transparent, with some focus on good causes for the society, and did some nice projects.

      Cons

      Could be challenging for those who don't buy the company's culture and social focus. Pay for technical persons is ok but not very competitive for the talented consultants.

      Self selected group

      Principal consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Almost allow you to do anything you like to do. All kinds of opportunities across various countries and industries. Very supportive leadership teams providing mentoring and coaching.

      Cons

      ...only when you are proactive and self-motivated. When you are not, you will soon find yourself staying in a silent corner without "structural support" you might expect to happen automatically, or you will be send to boring clients to do some boring work. But, hey, at the end of the day, since you don't have a preference on what you want to do, what is the base to complain "that's something I don't want to do"? Summary: it's heaven for some people and hell for some other. If you find it doesn't fit you, quit quickly and join IBM.

      Unfortunately stumbling along

      Senior consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      + Great culture; smart people + Interesting mix of clients/industries + Opportunities for international assignments

      Cons

      - Company leadership is young, still in their "first job." It really shows. - Financial feast-or-famine mentality - You can earn 20% more salary anywhere else (at least); it makes it hard to attract top talent. - Poor consulting skills across the org; only a handful practice them - Lots of young, inexperienced hires per capita. - TRAVEL. It gets tough.
