Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI worked at Odgers Berndtson full-time for less than a year
Pros
I could not find one
Cons
There are very few able Consultants. Two - three are getting bulk of the work, that too from Family run third grade Organisations. The environment is stifling and the culture sucks. People are curt and most Consultants are boorish. Most Consultants are incompetent and are only around as they flatter the MD. The management only listens to a few people. This is the worst out of the five organisations I have been a part of

Pros
Healthcare plan, flexi working, nice offices, away days, room for progression, nice teams
Cons
More of a telling what is happening - no openness with management and often a corporate culture not a personal. Management have a ‘club’ feel that if you aren’t part of the inner circle, you’re unimportant and disposable.

It's a biggish company so some initiatives take a while to action.

Pros
- Most of the people are awesome - Great location in downtown Toronto with new office overlooking Lake Ontario - Golden handcuffs salaries means you're happy until you're not
Cons
- More than 20 people voluntarily left the company in 2020, during a pandemic - nowhere to go unless you are a Principal or Partner - there is no HR - favoritism - Management is COMPLETELY unaware of how rank-and-file employees feel and make wildly unpopular decisions that lower morale - A lot of potential, but management change is desperately needed to bring in a new approach
