Pluspunten

Minpunten
-Tiered salary structure (Procurement Solution starting salaries are approximately 30% less than Management Consulting group, despite both groups mainly doing Sourcing work) -Limited advancement opportunities for Procurement Solutions - Only one PS consultant has EVER made it to partner -Second class citizen feeling - Hierarchy leads to PS group being looked at as "ugly step sitter" -Poor project leadership - While there are exceptions, most project managers/principals are jerks and more focused on pleasing the client than on getting along with lower level consultants; no 360 degree review system -Very political - Getting ahead requires kissing butt -Good deck writing often used to mask incompetence/lack of subject matter expertise
