Pros

Sorry nothing to mention - there are some good people around, many of them leaving (or left)

Cons

Calls itself mgmt consulting but is purely body shopping -- total lack of professional standards -- performance mgmt lacks any logic and people mgmt/professional development is non-existing -- absurdly high attrition, mgmt changes -- current mgmt doesn't seem to have a clue about their business strategy, business model -- in a nutshell: don't even consider working there if you don't want to totally ruin your career

Pros

Varied client work — Different clients and project types, which keeps things interesting. Real project mobility — You can move between projects when you advocate for yourself (within reason). Approachable leadership — Senior leaders are open to conversations if you reach out. Good development resources — Plenty of training and growth opportunities if you take advantage of them. Strong teams — Colleagues are smart, capable, and great to work with. Entrepreneurial environment — New ideas are encouraged, and there’s room to take initiative.

Cons

Long hours vary by project — Like most any professional job, some engagements require extended hours for prolonged periods, but work–life balance really depends on the client and team. Additional internal responsibilities — Depending on level, there can be a significant amount of firm‑support work outside of client delivery. Domain alignment not guaranteed — You may not always be staffed on projects that match your domain expertise. Coaching alignment constraints — Coaching relationships are tied to domain, which limits flexibility in choosing formal mentors. Long engagements (sometimes) — Some projects run for long durations or through multiple extensions. It can provides stability but may reduce variety in client and project experience depending on what you’re looking for.
