Ventajas
Smart and helpful people. Reasonably good compensation and medical benefits. Good work-life balance among consulting firms. Some well-known clients. Some project directors/managers are very knowledgeable, hands-on and willing to teach.
Desventajas
No clear direction from the management, doing transformation for the sake of doing, and people are wasting a lot of time on it just to increase visibility and look good internally. Generally favors talk rather than actual works. Some managers love to take credit from junior team members without consents. Job ranks are given randomly based on luck, also favorism of the interviewers and prospective project directors, especially among the new joiners in 2021: someone with 2 years exp given senior consultant; 3 years' exp given consultant; 6 years' exp given senior con; 4 years' exp given manager, etc. Also for career progression, it sometimes depends on favorism, if you are unlucky enough to be assigned to projects directors/managers who like to be treated as god, rather than doing you work well, you better spend more time to please him/her so that you'll get a good reviewing score and have more chance for progression. This upsets team members and we saw a large group of people leaving for better options. Less strategic projects, more towards implementation and PMO ones, if you are looking towards MBB kind of job, don't come here. Long bench time and furlough required during covid period, a lot of uncertainties. No bonus given for year 2020.
