Pros

Good benefits for a consulting firm. Good variety of clients to work for. Fun environment.

Cons

Extremely hard to do something different. Hard to move between practices. You get labeled and even with training it is hard to get staffed doing something new. Not good at posting jobs internally allowing existing employees to apply. New positions seem to go to new hires. Not the best place to work if you have been around for awhile for the above reasons. Also while they say they look out for their consultants it is still the almighty dollar that prevails.

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 Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
