Pros

Truly competent and very talented,dedicated statf without a profit center mentality. Firm formerly ran with a partnership mentaility and people really worked hard at being collaborative.

Cons

Senior mamagement focused on the merger/integration so the firm is currently adrift. Still, the firm is one of the best at what it does in spite of the management void.

Pros

Opportunities to grow are good. We are a strong company, and I think we have a pretty good business model. I think the organization does allow for innovative approaches to be tried, but with a pretty short leash. I have worked at companies that are FAR less amenable to change and think progressively. Comparatively, I think we focus less on Wall Street than other consulting firms - maybe the Dutch influence, but we seem to have more long term thinking that just "what will the stock price do at end the month" that I have seen elsewhere among senior management.

Cons

With all the acquisitions, we are becoming much more bureaucratic. Too many mundane decisions are pushed too far up the ladder - more local authority (and responsibility) would allow us to be more nimble.

Pros

Excellent salary and benefit package. Ability to work anywhere in the country.

Cons

Too driven to the immediate bottom line regardless if it is not the best long term solution. This is proven with their loss of market share in many of their locations. Lack of entrepreneurship mentality limits the truly driven employees.
