      Pros

      Intelligent, hard-working coworkers are everywhere. I think the long-term strategy to grow the consulting business via recent acquisitions and to focus less on Executive Search is a good one. The core IP and knowledge behind the products is phenomenal!

      Cons

      Changing direction and business focus takes time and dedication. Upper management indicates they are behind the shift in focus, yet resources (people and money) are not always there. Existing staff are spread thin and expectations are high, yet compensation is lacking. Career advancement is difficult as there is little to no investment in training and it can be difficult to get exposure to new things in order to stay current or to expand skills.

      Pros

      Perception of being highly professional and internally organized.

      Cons

      Reality is they have little infrastructure to compete effectively on a global scale, have low tenure in their recruitment ranks, overcharge for their services and have poor decision making amongst the leadership.
