Vantaggi

- Strong client delivery teams that often "wows" customers - Good foundational mid-level leadership content - Interesting client projects - Flexible work schedules - Good pay - Collegial, friendly atmosphere - Sales driven culture - Managers provide good coaching, especially in client delivery areas

Svantaggi

- R&D and Marketing are disconnected from customers - Difficult to engage management in changing processes--very hierarchical and territorial as most senior managers have been with Forum for 15-20 years - The lack of customer data beyond each consultant's last experience provides lots of debate, few substantive strategic decisions. This lack of agility can be frustrating if you think because of its small size and brainpower they might accomplish more. - Management coaching in sales areas often not reliable - Many are afraid to voice their opinions openly

Vantaggi

Collaborative atmosphere, everyone is always looking to brainstorm new solutions "Unlimited PTO" - may be gone now, I never had a chance to use more than a couple of days Very collegial atmosphere in the Boston Office, it was a great experience to come into work every day, before they trimmed the headcount down to keep only the employees who didn't work in the physical office

Svantaggi

Lack of direction and strategy put the company in a terrible position before acquisition. The bidding process was dragged out across 8 months leaving everyone in doubts about their job security. Communication was minimal after the sale was announced (immediately before a global company retreat to Austin, TX) and we all knew we were gathering for the last time as a complete group. The last month before the sale was finalized, business ground to a halt, sales were flatlining, and no one was told if their jobs would be impacted until the day they were told to leave the premises. Most of the people in the Boston office spent our time day-drinking or leaving during the day, since there was no supervision or guidance. The last week before the sale, our directors actively avoided talking to us because they knew we were going to be terminated but couldn't say it.
