Frost & Sullivan reviews

Very poor management: no focus on detail and no internal processes. Successful delivery of projects, reports etc is entirely dependent on the ability of the individuals working on it. Quality is very variable

Don't want to labour the point here as I think that there is universal acceptance that Frost & Sullivan is a very poor firm in terms of working environment, professional competence, and profitability. I'll try and resist the temptation to rant and distil the main downsides into the following points: 1. The firm has very poor profitability and no properly managed cost control - they have been struggling for a number of years, even in the good times (alarm bells should be ringing) 2. The sales culture creates selfishness that is corrosive 3. Lack of focus on high quality delivery - focus is on sales 4. No real direction or professional competence in one particular area 5. The firm has developed a reputation for attracting poor quality individuals 6. Client dissatisfaction - the worst possible outcome in consulting 7. Poor pay - the firm generally doesn't really look after its people
