Vantaggi

Not a bad place to get your start and decent exposure to some high profile clients. But there are lots of better consulting firms to join in this city. Benefits are standard.

Svantaggi

The company lacks in providing true consulting opportunities to employees. The CEO is all about maintaining appearances (so phony), has a single make shift office through Regus in Union Square, no real room for consultants to work or collaborate or learn. Very disingenuous CEO, lays off consultants quickly (less than a month/without warning/ if not on project) even though he lures them early on with a promise of a paid bench. During my time there, really good consultants/colleagues and directors were randomly let go, because they weren’t billable. Lots of better consulting firms to join in this town than Plaster Group. I transitioned into a full time opportunity at a client site as soon as it was available. I strongly recommend NOT joining Plaster Group unless you are desperate to get a foothold in this industry. Worst part about this firm is the lack opportunity, no real growth potential for consultants and a poor CEO who fakes it well. Super reactionary, unpredictable guy, if you are not drinking his koolaid, you are gone! Some good, intelligent senior level consultants and directors but the CEO can’t keep talent around because of how he poorly treats people. Not recommended.

Plaster Group appreciates honest feedback and is respectful of the forum Glassdoor provides for employee reviews. We have become a better company because of constructive feedback received on Glassdoor. However, we feel we must respond to the false allegations contained in this particular review. The review appeared on Glassdoor after the termination of an employee who was found to have plagiarized materials for our product management and marketing practice area, and was caught shopping Plaster Group client business to other consulting firms. This employee was terminated for cause, and did not accept an employment opportunity with one of our clients as stated in the review. Plaster Group has long enjoyed a good reputation in the consulting industry and positive ratings on Glassdoor precisely because of the way we value our employees and the high caliber of consultants we employ. The success and satisfaction of our employees is paramount to Plaster Group and as such, Plaster Group's policies regarding bench time are more generous than most firms in our industry with ample time provided for employee development and transitioning to new client roles. Employees are not let go without substantial notice for job search, unless for violations of company policy, such as those described above.
