Vantaggi

- Salary was good - Junior consultants really want to do a great job - some great middle managers

Svantaggi

- Leaders and senior team members operate with a “big four” mentality, highly individualistic, with an “every person for themselves” approach, even when leading teams. - There is a lack of empathy and consideration for the internal employee experience. If something drives revenue, employee conditions and wellbeing are overlooked. - Poor behaviour is overlooked. Promotions are awarded to individuals who bring in revenue, without regard for how they treat peers and junior team members. - The organisation is highly hierarchical. Principals and above often look down on others, with little respect shown for the people actually delivering the hands-on client work. - There is strong resistance to promoting or developing junior team members. People leaders are required to push hard for their teams who have already proven themselves annd received recognition, the push is often unsuccessful. - There is a belief that the culture is strong, but this is based on alignment to a “big four” model rather than the actual employee experience. Slightly better than a big 4, but no where near good on normal standards. - Burnout is high, driven by internal politics and lack of respect rather than by workload itself.

Vantaggi

•There is an impressive budget, especially for high-level events, ancillary experiences, client giveaways, and premium swag. Management does not hesitate to fund top-notch brand experiences when needed. •The company offers a highly competitive benefits and perks package that remains a strong selling point.

Svantaggi

•The "fiercely human" core value does not match daily operations. Collaboration is routinely replaced by a self-service model of training videos and help articles. •These recurring shifts are designed to manufacture the appearance of fiscal stability for the benefit of external stakeholders and clients, while leaving core operational deficits unaddressed. •Organizational maturity is low. Teams operate in deep silos, the internal tech stack is outdated, and there is a distinct lack of adequate project and event management software.
