So much marketplace potential wasted

Senior vice president

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Talented people and broad expertise suggests the potential to truly deliver for clients

Cons

Too siloed, stunningly inefficient for all the talk of increasing efficiency, lack of inspiring leadership. Ultimately having cash on hand becomes more important post Bain than delivering the kind of potential value client's expect for the high price they pay.

Long Hours, Exhausting Work, No Job Security

Anonymous

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Very smart and friendly people

Cons

Suddenly laid off 40% in Los Angeles without regard on the health and welfare of the people who are left behind to tackle all the work. Clients are charged premium for a few automated reports, yet jobs end up loss-making work because of too many CEOs with salaries equated into each project. The people who are actually working on the projects are only allocated/allowed to bill a few hours a week to make the projects look profitable. So in the books they look under utilized and eventually unfairly let go when in reality those people worked very long hours too like everyone else.
