Pros

Good colleagues, chance to work on excellent projects, fair compensation. One of the leading players in C&B and HR consulting. Global player. Good client base.

Cons

No longer number one. Did not keep up with Towers Watson and Big Four. Promoted the wrong people to senior management and partner level. Lost major clients because of the above reasons. Not strong on developing employees.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
