PA Consulting – “Can be great place to work, but not a place to stay long term”

Pros

Outstanding peers for the most part for Principal Consultants and below, Managing Consultants and partners can be hit or miss.

Great training for the consulting way of thinking

Work life balance

Cons

Policies are too UK centric

Don't practice what they preach sometimes

Cross-practice work never gets full recognition people deserve or full credit during year end reviews

Advice to Senior Management

Stop pushing UK centric views to offices around the world and let the regional (country) offices decide the best decision for their region. Stop having short term views and take a longer outlook in the business and growth.
