Pluspunten

telework (only since March 2020 though, and not sure how long it will still be an option)

Minpunten

-Deceptive recruiting practices -Immature management -Compensation is below average -winning the company new business is the only performance metric (other than utilization rate) -essentially punished for taking PTO, which is minimal to begin with -slimy and unsophisticated c-suite, partners, etc -staff augmentation... NOT a consulting role -after only 19 months, most of the people I onboarded with have left -HR there to protect partners from lawsuits- not to help employees -no meaningful investment in learning or development

Pluspunten

I work directly with excellent people. My immediate colleagues are collaborative, capable, and committed to doing high-quality work for clients.

Minpunten

The biggest challenges tend to come from the corporate side of the organization. Corporate processes and communication can sometimes feel disconnected from the needs of project teams, which creates unnecessary friction. In addition, benefits that were once stronger, including 401(k) matching and medical coverage, have been significantly reduced. A recent example is the increased emphasis on “utilization rates” in merit increases. While utilization is understandable in a consulting environment, tying it too heavily to merit can effectively penalize employees for using earned vacation time and can make PTO feel less like a real benefit.
