Pros

High Perks, Good Opportunities to Grow

Cons

No road map of future

Advice to Management

Keep up the good work

Pros

- The people I worked with whilst I was there was great with some very intelligent and driven individuals - Nice office in a good location - Work life balance was not too crazy but dependent on project as per any consultancy

Cons

- Poor treatment of staff - High turnover of staff which contrasts their messaging - Growth opportunities are few - Management from senior levels were quite hands off even with the open door culture - Projects and work promised fell short of expectations - Not as transparent as they believe themselves to be - Plenty of bench time for a number of individuals - Much of the work outsourced to India - Benefits... are below par for the industry

Advice to Management

- Provide far greater level of transparency to all levels of staff - Work more to develop the staff they have

Pros

Met some great people but thankfully all have left and gone on to great roles outside of this company

Cons

Comments below are based on the London office; - Categorically the worst culture and hierarchy I’ve ever encountered in my career - The management team are in a bubble of massive male egos and sub standard delivery - Focus is bottom line, so they will put anyone in any role regardless of experience - Most of the consultants have been on the bench more than they have been on a client site, there is no... development, people focus and trying to make a positive contribution is normally rebuffed as ‘management know better’ - If you have a personality or an opinion - THIS PLACE ISNT FOR YOU!!!

Advice to Management

Invest in training for yourselves - I’ve never seen a management team so disconnected from their people!

Pros

parties and fun but thats just a wash in my view

Cons

no pipeline of work too small to get good enough assignments leave aside aligned to your passion too much marketing and branding and no real sensible engagements technology practice based on indian offshore resource stuck in due to visa hire and fire practise lot of seniors on bench hiring is all about sales just to attract and fill in junior positions seriously lack of brand position, recognition and lack... of investment in marketing no work from home allowed avoid london especially

Advice to Management

they wont listen at all so does not matter

Pros

very good company to work for

Cons

hiring and firing is usual

Pros

Working on some big projects.

Cons

Bad management of the actual need to employ more people. You can be let go pretty quickly. Some issue with the integration in part of the team. There seems to be a clear divide between the European team and the rest.

Advice to Management

Better integration and making sure no one feels left out and everyone work in English.

Pros

Relaxed Environment and stuff like that

Cons

AC always on so it's cold

Advice to Management

AC in moderation

Pros

Good paymaster, rewards well for efforts. Good onsite opportunities if you are lucky enough to be placed on a project.

Cons

No career growth. If you are a part of the delivery team then company treats you only like a billing machine.

Advice to Management

Focus on career growth of performers in delivery rather than leaving them completely in the hands of account managers.
