Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookDisapproves of CEOI worked at Oliver Wyman full-time for less than a year
Pros
You can violate any EEOC laws. You can violate any Department of Labors law. You can behave as unethically as you wish here and nothing will be done to you. If you are still into slavery, the company treats minorities like garbage at Olyver Wyman. Perfect place to bully and get away with it.
Cons
I experienced racism I experienced bully I experienced insulting behaviors I experienced retaliation I experienced harassment to resign I experienced Cyberbullying I experienced set up to fail and to be forced to quit I was discriminated against for the entire three months I worked here until I had to resign from stress I experienced name calling I experienced mockery and ridicule I witnessed racial discrimination I experienced unfair treatment during my injury I was refused worker compensation There is no confidentiality in this company I witnessed HR burying all personnel matters that concern minorities I truly regret working at Oliver Wyman Worst experience of my entire life Worst HR Worst Diversity team Worst management

RecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Oliver Wyman full-time for more than 10 years
Pros
- Open meritocracy, with leaner bureaucracy and fewer obstacles to advancement - Less cutthroat, no up or out policy and a shift away from MBA's to quicker promotion - Truly global P&L with top-tier clients and content (strategy focus) means lots of cross-industry international opportunities
Cons
- WLB challenges, though with management working proactively to improve - Growing brand name in many markets, though consistently improving - Some pains (for example, shared services like IT) associated with being the subsidiary of a major public company

"A top tier firm with leaders who truly care and a culture that is very human"

RecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Oliver Wyman full-time for more than 10 years
Pros
- Top tier premium management consultancy experience - Company strategy and results focus on achieving amazing impact on industries and the world; we're at all the key clients needed to do this The above is tablestakes for this kind of firm. What makes OW special is: - The people, who truly care and treat each other in a human and humane way - The culture, which is a bit chaotic but also entrepreneurial and open to experiments or individual customizations
Cons
- Less known brand than MBB, on average across industries. (Financial Services probably more on par or OW ahead in places) - The chaotic entrepreneurialism can be unnerving until you learn to roll with it, love it, and get value from it
