Pros

Excellent training ground, work with the best companies as CLients. great exposure to the market

Cons

Management turns a blind eye to everything but the performance. Lots of lip service but little else. No HR support of any kind. No career path/advise given, no development programs for its employees [bar the partners]. No career advancement for its employees. Need to be connected/allied with the right people who will speak up for you - in order to be recognized or even credited.

Pros

I am a consultant through a firm acquired by Korn Ferry and have had a great experience with both the firm (Salo) and with Korn Ferry as a parent company. Great to have benefits and PTO as a consultant and great training and resources available - good communication as well!

Cons

Transitional period during acquisition had a few bumps but nothing major and all ironed out as more time has gone on.
