Pros

- decent pay and benefit - close interaction with senior management - good project delivery can be competitive to MBB - some people are top and well established in the industry

Cons

- gentlemen's club culture; corporate value is very outdated, even though they pretend to be cool - politics can be very serious; they fire people easily - all arrogant white male; in some project, team work is a joke - they like talking about knowledge accumulation, but it's mostly people who don't really read or think innovatively copy and paste from other consulting reports

Pros

less hierarchal in nature than other consulting firms

Cons

seen a lot of off-handed comments about directors from other managing directors in the presence of SVPs and VPs when an employee had put in notice. Not nice. not a very diverse place to work
