Pros

Very smart colleagues, interesting work, 5 weeks vacation, relatively decent healthcare. Not too crazy in terms of travel.

Cons

Experience can vary a lot depending on who you are working with, very few opportunities for growth, toxic work environment, absolutely no planning at the top of the organization, deficient leadership. Compensation is low compared to other consulting firms .

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
