Organization can feel unstructured at times since it is a newer company but its improving year over year

In my time at Echelon, I can truthfully say that I have not had one bad experience. With management, coworkers, and clients, every interaction is meaningful and pleasant. Work-Life Balance Echelon is extremely respectful of all employee's work-life balance. Need to go to your child's school pickup? Never an issue. Feeling under the weather? Let your team know and take the rest of the day to rest and recover. Additionally, Echelon does not enforce an exhausting utilization target that leaves you feeling like your days are all work and no life. Management encourages you to learn new skills, because they know those skills will only facilitate even better output. Echelon knows that its people are its most important asset, and they do everything in their power to protect that. Quality Coworkers Most places tell you to ask questions to your manager when you have a question. At Echelon, your superiors regularly check in on you and address your questions before you even get stuck. And if you do have a question, coworkers are extremely helpful and will share their experience to support your work. Echelon has a horizontal management structure, so even an intern has direct, daily communication with directors and above to ensure that maximum support and learning are enabled. They want to help you learn and produce quality work, not make you afraid to ask questions. Learning Opportunities Consulting offers a great opportunity to learn from executive decisionmakers and gain more work experience in one year than other workplaces could provide in 2 or 3 years. Senior employees regularly hold lunch and learn events to pass their skills to Junior employees. And with so many service offerings, you are sure to learn a new area of cybersecurity that you previously did not work with.

Not necessarily a negative, but if you prefer working on one project at a time, rather than 2-3, you may not like consulting at Echelon. The caseload and hours are never overbearing, but you will have to work with multiple clients at once, which is something to consider against your personal preferences.
