Business Outlook

Pros

Gain real expertise in a specific area for a specific industry. Great co-workers (despite low morale) Low travel compared to other consulting firms

Cons

Often times politics trump merit in evaluating & rewarding employees. There are "untouchable" people just because of their personal connections/relationships with partners. Narrowly defined industry focus. Poor articulation/implementation of vision. Complete lack of clarity when it comes to compensation, particularly bonuses. It is a mystery how bonuses are calculated. The management does not even communicate a range or basic stats.
