Vantaggi

The facade was very team oriented. Free coffee, filtered water, ping pong table. Hybrid work schedule, but really only wanted people in the office because it was desolate.

Svantaggi

The facade of “great people” was just that, a facade. Ultimately upper management was unorganized and did not understand work/life balance, even though they had prided themselves on it as being a “perk”. They made poor business decisions with hiring people without really thinking thoroughly. The CEO was overworking staff members, and forcing people out of the company by burning them out. The CEO’s expectations of working long hours trickled down to other senior management members and those expectations consequentially made the place unbearable to work for. They prided themselves as a boutique consulting agency, but did not value differing opinions. It was the high way or no way at this place. Not open to new ideas of changing structural inefficiencies. I could go on…

Vantaggi

Pointe Advisory is a rare find in the consulting world. Pointe is at the right size where the culture is genuinely tight-knit (people are kind, caring, smart, and deeply intellectually curious) and there is career accelerating growth happening. The work and people are MBB quality but without layers of BS bureaucracy. Pointe is also highly meritocratic and you get real, direct feedback (from very smart leaders).

Svantaggi

Pointe runs lean and you’ll likely find yourself wearing several hats at once. It can be a lot at times and it's not the right work environment for everyone. It's a good fit if you prioritize growing fast and gaining exposure quickly.

Thank you for taking the time to share comments about your positive experience at Pointe Advisory. It is encouraging to hear that our genuine emphasis on healthy and supporting culture is recognized and appreciated. We have a special environment, and each team member is responsible for maintaining and building on that culture for others. We do tend to run lean and give people the opportunity (and the responsibility) to gain experience across different functional roles. As we grow, we're adding more functional specialization. This will allow people to spend increased time on their best and highest use. Thank you for your honest comments and your many contributions.

Vantaggi

Culture, community, work life balance, and work quality are all top notch. Very smart bunch of professionals with deep connections in the professional services world.

Svantaggi

The company is young and still working out some kinks, including a recent shift in employee titles, but it still retains a start-up feel. Only active in specific markets, which leads to deep expertise but less opportunities for employees to learn other industries.

Thank you for your thoughtful review and most importantly, your suggestions for making Pointe even better. We're grateful to hear our entrepreneurial and agile culture is strong, apparent, and valued. We recognize changes in employee titles can be uneasy. The changes we made are intended to better align with the industry and increase recruiting success, particularly at the mid-level that you rightfully identify as a key contributor to balance. As we continue our growth path, we absolutely intend to expand our market exposure and offer new learning and development opportunities for all. Thank you for being a part of Pointe and we encourage you to share your ideas in 1:1s and/or share them freely with leadership.
