Pros

You will trauma bond with your co workers and create frienships.

Cons

Leadership is unprofessional, shady and obsessed with micromanaging. They leave you hanging with no instructions for projects. The HR dept leadership really needs some work. There is no career growth. DEI was performative. Culture is to get yelled at when asking reasonable questions.

Pros

Many consultants successfully use Exponent as a stepping stone to larger tech companies. The project work can sometimes be very interesting and some consultants appreciate overtime and bonuses for long hours (albeit many feel they would earn more overall compensation at larger tech companies).

Cons

The company has very high expectations of its consultants and doesn't always provide the resources necessary to achieve their expectations. In order to grow after the first few years, consultants are generally expected to generate their own business, but some junior consultants feel they are not fairly given credit for business they help bring in. Many consultants feel the performance rewards are too delayed.
