Svantaggi
-The executives and leaders are often touting that pay is equitable, which is a bit misleading. All salaries are the same whether you are in consulting or in back office operations. So yes, women and minorities are payed the same as their peers. Yes, this is amazing! However, compare any employee in consulting and their responsibilities to another peer at the same level/pay. Quite often you will find significant inequality in responsibilities or workload. On the consulting side, there are no bonuses. If your project is a death march or requires working more, there is no incentive. And that's unfortunate when a peer may be on an easier project. It is even worse when the back office is promoted at the same rate of consulting and is paid the same. That's not to say they aren't valuable or aren't worthy of a promotion. There comes a point when the market can't sustain paying $100,000+ salaries for back office workers. These employees have golden handcuffs as no other company would pay them their salary for their role. -Pay isn't great for consulting and tech. Management did a poor job rolling out cost of living salary adjustments. They touted them as significant when it was only 5% -Management continues to talk about investing in Diversity/Inclusion but we still recruit from the same schools. BYU and Alabama to name a couple, which produe the same demographics. If the company was truly invested in D/I, they would open up to other schools beyond the one historical black college they added this year.
