Vantaggi
Chatham bases much of its hiring decisions on a person's likelihood to build lasting, trusting relationships with clients as long as the person demonstrates potential to learn the math and finance. I appreciated how much the company invested in me so that I could become a great consultant. Chatham really does strive to be a values-based organization. Its "multiple bottom line" philosophy is more than just lip service, and I was proud to be associated with almost all of my teammates throughout the organization. There are some truly wonderful, caring, and competent people at Chatham.
Svantaggi
There is sometimes very little understanding about how careers can and should develop at Chatham, and that ambiguity can be frustrating for people who aspire to grow beyond their initial ramp-up. I am certain they are working on this issue, but it has caused some people to leave.
