      Smart Teams, Semi-Narrow Focus

      Senior associate consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Very progressive leadership, plenty of equal opportunities for men, women, LGTBQ, and minorities - Immediate exposure and experience with Sr Management - Director level clients - Brilliant leadership group - Active performance development programs - Great health insurance - Opportunities to create your own brand and drive innovation - Phenomenal culture among individuals, they really do hire great people - Plenty of events to meet people outside your direct project team

      Cons

      - While ZS is expanding, however much of the work is focused in Healthcare - 401k is far from competitive, 3% match 6 year vest - Fractional staffing, imagine working a client's Sr. Brand Manager role, but then being told it's only 20 hours so here's another 2 projects. - Average salaries: Leadership has made it clear that Business Operations is more client facing therefore requiring more experience from the start (hence no more campus recruiting for BOAs), but the pay is average and relatively equal when you compare to other consulting verticals within ZS at your level

      Decent pay; political environment and tactical focus

      Consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent pay Some friendly people Smart colleagues

      Cons

      Very narrow mindset. Didn’t see people with broad strategic mindset that you can find in general management consulting companies. Highly political environment. In contrary with what office / company wants to portray, there is a lot of back stabbing going on. Career planning / growth processes immature and in many cases non-existent (meaning there are very informal and based on ad hoc decisions). I recommend general management consulting firms to young people instead of ZS as they provide diversity in type of assignments and industries / clients, and equip employees with strategic mindset.

      Bad management and clicky team

      Assistant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good work life balance if they like you. Good vacation time. Nice consultants

      Cons

      the assistant role is mindless. expenses and travel, no ability to be a partner to those you support. if you arent midwest caucasian, you will feel excluded, and the manager doesnt make new ideas feel welcome. its her way or she pushes you out.
