Vantaggi

The Navigant days were great. They took a few years to screw everyone.

Svantaggi

Where do I start? First - the corporate infrastructure is dreadful. You will make yourself miserable acting like a bean counter to mirror federal consulting norms. It’ll be a waste of your time, for which you won’t be compensated but rest assured, Scott McIntyre will shame you into thinking you are a low life. Getting an expense report processed for legit business was like passing a kidney stone. Apparently you think I love hanging out in an Embassy Suites to bilk you on a Tuesday. Second - you are going to be plowed by Bain capital. Exceed your sales goal? Not enough. And then they come to you at the end of the FY and say “sorry that 60% firm goal and 40% team goal weren’t enough so your money goes down.” All the while, manically chasing scale. Three - it takes a special kind of stupid to agree to let a managing consulting firm assess a managing consulting firm. We are all fleeing the Titanic. Don’t do it to yourself.

Vantaggi

I work directly with excellent people. My immediate colleagues are collaborative, capable, and committed to doing high-quality work for clients.

Svantaggi

The biggest challenges tend to come from the corporate side of the organization. Corporate processes and communication can sometimes feel disconnected from the needs of project teams, which creates unnecessary friction. In addition, benefits that were once stronger, including 401(k) matching and medical coverage, have been significantly reduced. A recent example is the increased emphasis on “utilization rates” in merit increases. While utilization is understandable in a consulting environment, tying it too heavily to merit can effectively penalize employees for using earned vacation time and can make PTO feel less like a real benefit.
