Navigant Employee Reviews about "work environment"

Pros

There are a lot of new employees that have the right mindset to improve the culture and environment at Navigant. It will take a LOT of time.

Cons

Employee morale is low; they are overworked/overutilized and there is extremely high turnover, including within the senior leadership team. Employees are mistreated, called out in front of other people during meetings. There is a tone across the organization creating a negative work environment that most human beings cannot stay in for the long term.

Pros

Very diverse environment and a wide variety of unique individuals to work with

Cons

At early levels, get zero say in anything. Cannot pick projects to work, and senior management basically ignores anyone below the Management Consultant level (which is sort of insulting)

Pros

Interesting and challenging client assignments. Opportunity to work with very smart individuals who are willing to share their knowledge and establish and collaborative team environment. Colleagues create a sense of community in and out of the workplace. Healthy work-life balance. Salary is decent if you negotiate well when entering the company

Cons

Non-uniform standards for performance and quality. Multiple practices within the firm conducting the same type of work thus competing for client engagements with your colleagues. Direct leadership can be a bit dictatorial in their approach to subordinates. No steady pipeline of projects to keep consultants billable and utilized.

Pros

Great work like balance if you made your director aware of any overworked challenges. Good environment to work in to enhance certain professional skills due to the amount of budget dedicated to resources.

Cons

The organization only seems to cater to consultants in terms of professional development. There is not a clear roadmap in terms of career path for individuals not in a consulting role.

Pros

Young work environment. Good culture. Decent benefits packages. Offices in every major city. Recruits from good schools. Flat management structure.

Cons

Disparity in opportunity and compensation amongst practice areas. Lack of transparency. Bad sharing of knowledge between practice areas. Lack of teamwork at higher levels.

Pros

-Pay -Quality of Work -Friendly work environment -Amazing people to work with -Management is good but could be better! My overall experience has been great! I have learned a lot from my managers and co-workers.

Cons

-Could use better and more experienced managers. -Could do better due diligence during the hiring process to find the right employees for the job -Top management needs restructuring in order to secure the future of the company in the Canadian market.

Pros

Company outings and pay is fairly good.

Cons

Too much drama very cut throat and heartless. A very toxic environment to work in if you're not liked you will be outed without a true explanation.

Pros

You will be exposed to a a larger corporate institution which will be useful for future endeavors. You will also develop good technical skills that will be attractive for when you decide to work for a better firm.

Cons

Very regimented, bottom line corporate culture. You are a number in a pool of workers. Promotions do not come from hard work, but more when they decide to call your number. Rather quiet and uninviting work environment. And finally, a huge communication gap between consultants and directors. You are more looked at as property than a hard worker. As I said in the title, this is a good place to start your career, but don't stay here too long, there are plenty of better companies out there that truly value your hard work and will reward you for it.
