Vantaggi
Great (immediate) team. Excellent clients/projects on offer. Flexible working. Big UK presence. Well respected consultancy all round. Laptops, blackberries (once you manage to get one!) and a great health & safety culture. Your health & well being is put before anything else- not many companies do that!
Svantaggi
Low salaries (well below market rate! Unless you are a partner). Prepare to be crushed. Working at ERM is a thankless job. Not much training/development provided. Pretty much left to develop yourself with little to no direction. Be prepared to be told to stick within your confines. Don't be too ambitious! It will scare middle management who are the gate keepers in keeping the lower graded staff down! To enhance their own promotion (I'm talking Principal consultants). Please don't take anything personal here- although you will soon become desensitised. Your timesheet is king! Keep your billable hours HIGH TO THE SKY! New starters are only generally hired on *the big uk project I won't name* very resource draining for those working on other, more beneficial projects! But that's for another day.
