Pros

- No travel model - Good culture - Happy hours, quarterly meetings and annual get away - Strong IT/Technical practices - Sabbatical after three years (and 3,000 billable hours ...they fail to highlight this point)

Cons

The following mainly speak to the Business Consulting practice in the Dallas market - Staff Augmentation type work - Weak Business Consulting practice - Little to no strategy work in the Dallas office. Majority of the work is Project Management and Business Analysis. - Recent hires are coming in with zero consulting experience - No practice specialty in the Dallas market to grow or build around - Little transparency when requested (evaluations, bonuses, staffing, etc) - Very few opportunities for career advancement

Pros

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Cons

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
