Pros

Great exposure to different industries and different types of projects.

Cons

Expectations constantly changing, different feedback on the same pieces of work depending on person, young team and quick promotions which could be a pro but also can create power dynamics.

Thank you for your review. Consulting does provide great variety and exposure - to clients, sectors, project subject matter and teams.

Always tough to read a harsh review. As the CPO I take responsibility for the vision, style and approach of the people team. I would hope that we are not stuck in the middle ages, but rather are open minded and progressive. I apologise if our approach to EDI is embarrassing as we pay attention to it and it is important to us. We get positive feedback from Nousers on our inclusive culture and the continued improvement around this important aspect of work and society, while recognising that we can always be better and that the world doesn't sit still so we must be open to ongoing improvement and change. We will keep working at it.

- Limited available sectors - Low pay relative to all except Big 4 and few small consulting firms. No longer competitive with government positions.
