        Pros

        Huron's initially, Huron seemed like a forever home, type company, good culture and decent pay and bonus.

        Cons

        Like all small consulting firms, in the end if there aren't enough projects in the pipeline, they will start cutting resources and overwork resources. And eventually they get on the offshore business model/train, and focus on developing their offshore teams and diminish the size of their onshore teams, by cutting mid level positions and bringing in associate level, onshore resources. You have about 100 very greedy, very overpaid Managing directors who only care how much their bonus is going to be every year and they will take any project on, at the lowest price and then burn out their consultants, trying to make the poorly budgeted project, succesful.

          Pros

          Co-workers, diversity, benefits, community/volunteer involvement.

          Cons

          Archaic management mindset from old Arthur Anderson employees. EAs must be in the office 5 days a week (although everyone they support is remote), aren't treated like they have anything to contribute and have no growth & development plan.

            Pros

            People are chill and the work doesn’t seem as demanding as in management consulting. Lot less PowerPoint slides and does require a lot more learning of actual software for the job

            Cons

            High expectations for new hires. Very rushed onboarding process. Slight lack of stability in terms of projects depending on the practice. Below industry level pay

                    Salary and benefits fail against market. Leadership that’s says it does is comparing to C players when we are asking for our people to be A players.

                      Senior Resource Manager

                      Last Thursday and Friday I interviewed with 2 hiring managers for 2 different companies. Both of them said they’d like me to progress to the next interview and the recruiter would reach out. One company said they wanted a offer out this month so it would be a quick process. I sent thank you emails and references. I haven’t heard from either recruiter. I had the recruiter screening and hiring manager interview just days apart, I thought I’d hear back by now. Thoughts?!

                      Program Manager

                      Just heard that some companies are going to start paying people for their time if they are asking you to do a presentation or something! Does anyone think this will become a thing?
