Just so-so. Some opportunity for growth as a consulting firm in general

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Company is small, there's opportunity to stand out

Cons

Life work balance is hard. But they just started a pilot program that ends the day at 6 pm, which is much better than staying late after 7 pm

Expect to work insanely hard and receive minimal pay

Business Outlook

Pros

- People there are very intelligent, and often friendly - The clients are high profile - The work is definitely interesting - The office layout is attractive, and has an open floor plan - Higher positions have more flexibility with hours in and out of office - Casual work environment/dress - Ability to reach out to higher ups (CEO / VP / etc.) at any position

Cons

- Teams don't have time to train you (or simply don't want to), so expect to train yourself - Not a team environment in general - Work-life balance is horrendous (expect to work 12+ hour work days at least once or twice a month) - Takes too long to get key changes into place (managerial and administration changes are slow/not efficient) - Career growth related solely to team growth, not your personal abilities, and is very slow - As of 2013, company is experiencing high turnover rate of their most knowledgeable and often hardest-working employees, so lower level employees are delegated more day-to-day work rather than it being evenly spread out throughout the team

Winding down

Pros

Nice people. Good office location in Bellevue. A few of the VPs were incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely interested in mentoring up and coming employees.

Cons

The good VPs were heavily outnumbered by the bad ones. Everyone was resigned to the fact that the investors had zero intention of growing the company. Only interest was getting EBITDA positive at any cost in order to sell the company.
