      Pros

      Lots of opportunities to explore different roles/businesses, culture of internal promotion, great IP, very strong brand, the people are high caliber, global business gives a lot of credibility and a strong network of colleagues.

      Cons

      Pay. Career paths aren't readily available or intuitive for support roles- you have to make your own opportunities. Culture/identity shifts are constant due to growth by acquisition. Menu of services changes too much to allow a consistent message to clients and internal staff. Supporting roles are generally secondary to those that are client-facing; development opportunities align with that focus.

      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.

      Pros

      The client diversity across industries and regions is top notch. Great brand recognition. The marketing investments in Korn Ferry Tour and LA28 paid off. Smart people. Remote work is a plus as 75% people work remotely. No push for facetime in offices. Work from anywhere! Everyone knows of Korn Ferry!

      Cons

      A culture of long hours and interrupted vacations. Clear demarcation between haves(fee earners) and have nots (execution). High expectations with outdated systems, manual processes, inefficient. Low pay as there are no merits due to market/company performance. Hard to get food at the holiday party so stop at Five Guys prior.
