Avantages
One of the best companies in the industry for quality and service. Top class capabilities and very strong ethics. Attracts talented, smart people from around the world. Daily intake of problem solving for clients, so very stimulating intellectually. Can move around the company on client work or relocation. Pretty relaxed culture, diversity is improving.
Inconvénients
Because the company offers amazing work and people, it gets away with mediocre financial and career rewards. Promotions and salaries are non transparent. Can pay 70-80%of market rate (Lomdon) for consulting and manager roles if promoted internally (vs external hires). New partnership structure still in early days - middle mngt squeezed til they drop to pay for the senior coverage. Many partners bring in zero money - its all down to low paid consultants to keep the lights on.
