      Tremendous potential if it would practice what it preaches

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Strongest brand of any firm in its class, with highest revenues and largest footprint Varied range of products and services, offering strong growth potential Financially disciplined and well-positioned for continued growth

      Cons

      Political culture where finance exerts extreme control over LOB leadership Executive search business heavily favored, leaving other businesses to fight for relevance No appetite for practicing what it preaches to clients - internal talent management is far less important than company financial performance

      Pros

      No Pros about this company

      Cons

      No raises, bonuses are low and no work-life balance. People who are on the business front line are treated poorly by management. There is never a thank you for teams who hard work. When projects are sold the client loves what sales folk discuss but it can never be delivered because there are no tools and competent people to deliver. It is hard to believe a big company doesn't have more tools established by now.

      Steer clear of this company

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great, intelligent people, great intellectual property.

      Cons

      No work-life balances, no raises, not even a cost of living raise, there is no incentive to stay here. Too many acquisitions and too much work being sold with not enough resources to deliver. Employees are disposable and overworked. They want a certain level of employee yet are not willing to pay for it. No company culture. There is no appreciation or compensation for employees at lower levels.
