Pros

Traditional executive search (c-suite) model. Ample resources (database, research tools, marketing materials) to execute successfully. Strong name recognition that makes it easy to connect with prospective candidates and clients.

Cons

Not for someone seeking work/life balance. Compensation tied directly to the amount of effort contributed. Must be available to partners/clients/candidates 24/7.

Pros

I am a consultant through a firm acquired by Korn Ferry and have had a great experience with both the firm (Salo) and with Korn Ferry as a parent company. Great to have benefits and PTO as a consultant and great training and resources available - good communication as well!

Cons

Transitional period during acquisition had a few bumps but nothing major and all ironed out as more time has gone on.
