Pros

Respectable salary ranges, 3% company stock match

Cons

No work life balance, leadership will actively hold back your advancement, half the consultants barely do any work and the rest of their team has to pick up the slack for them, management lies to members. If you want to transfer to another business unit, it won’t happen. Your business unit won’t want to lose your billable hours so they will actively block internal transfers and do everything they can to keep you on your current project including threats and intimidation. When I quit, the VP of my business unit sat me down and berated me for my decision to leave for 30 minutes. Do not work here.

Pros

Exposure to different situations and a selected few good people that are friendly and willing to help. I really wish it was a different place. I enjoyed working here but the VP and the 2 directors (top 1%) ruined it.

Cons

Corrupted Management. Toxic environment. Be prepared to be thrown under the bus. I was chucked under the bus multiple times even through i followed the instructions correctly under the guidance of my manager. I left the company and still my name gets slandered and crapped on. Not once did i get a thank you instead management got all the gratitude. TYPICAL GLOBAL TOXIC COMPANY. - Backstabbing, alliances, the top 1% (3 people) STEAL all the credit, get the bonuses and salary increases whereas, the workers is just a number.

Pros

Good work-life balance Culture is good--people are serious about work but not super uptight Most managers don't micromanage Many opportunities for internal movement Many offices, so if you move you might be able to keep your job Decent benefits like stock purchase plan and unlimited sick leave Very family friendly company

Cons

Salaries are lower than the competition Constant reorgs make it very difficult to do your job Promotions are very political/upward mobility is limited (you see a lot of leadership's family members getting promoted/given leadership positions) "Working together" program is forcing people to work back in an office who used to be remote
