Disappointing transparency and insight into the company direction and goals. Employee growth is expected and touted yet not adequately allocated for with full-time engagement expected for client projects. It is unclear where the company direction is coming from when senior consultants and principals are surprised by decisions and new company initiatives. Morale is low and many coworkers have expressed confusion as to what is happening at management tier, after a round of layoffs company wide chatter is nearly nonexistent.
