Pros

The people in the Management Services division of A.,T. Kearney are very friendly, helpful and easy to work with. There are some great minds and thinkers. You can really build your own schedule - so as an independent worker you can really succeed. No one will micro manage you.

Cons

Sometimes the long-term vision of the firm is unclear. There is often a level of complacency with under-performers that can be quite aggravating - it's a look the other way and make up for their shortcomings approach.

Pros

If you’re fresh out of school and don’t have a specific skill and don’t know what to do, and you’re willing to be a yes man then yes it might be a good place to figure out your next step.

Cons

- Lack of pipeline for certain practices (and they will blame that on you saying your utilization is low but there’s nothing you can do at an associate level) - Full of people that feel good about themselves but they actually knows nothing about how actual industry work - No talent - Management will give you vague feedback that you can’t act on, For example, I got asked to “elevate the deck” but when I asked is it the messaging or is it the format etc they can’t give me anything specific - The expectation on work quality is inconsistent - Some manager level people can’t do excel which is shocking - You need to be a people pleaser in order to get promoted
