Pros

Good pay, good location, other employees are good to work with.

Cons

This organization is deeply mismanaged. The four U.S. partners are consistently at odds with one another and unable to collaborate, often dragging employees into their conflicts. The lead U.S. partner regularly makes inappropriate, sexist remarks, despite being a father to daughters, creating a hostile environment. Employees are encouraged to report issues to HR, but concerns are routinely dismissed, and no meaningful action is taken. Speaking up only puts a target on your back, several employees who voiced concerns were included in subsequent rounds of layoffs. The global leadership team is fully aware of the ongoing dysfunction, especially at the partner level, yet chooses to ignore it in favor of their own career advancement. This lack of accountability at every level makes for an incredibly toxic and demoralizing workplace.

Pros

Smart and hardworking consultants in the lower and middle ranks

Cons

Management is ice cold (it took 4 weeks for my manger to introduce me to anyone in the office and 6 weeks before he met with me 1:1), disjointed onboarding (it took 7 business days to get a working computer despite being put on a client project my first day), no clear strategy or roadmap (very much build-the-plane-as-you-fly-it atmosphere). Despite the company's braggadocio about their growth and size, I was laid off via FaceTime by a Partner who refused to give me a reason for the decision. He only told me it was my last day at the company and if I had concerns I should take them up with HR. The same partner told me in the interview that they were drowning in work but 3 months later me and 5% of the office were cut loose because they hadn't made any sales in the last 4 months.

Good group of colleagues and network developed through this experience

Cons

Management led through intimidation and was only focused on corporate politics, not on the organization's success.
