Bulger Partners Reviews

- Fake Glassdoor reviews (at least 3-4 written on this page) - CEO shows lack of commitment toward "firm" only shows up when it's convenient with his travel schedule - Spends way too much money on unnecessary items - CEO is never present but needs to have control over everything - CEO hires friends and colleagues over outside applicants - CEO will pride himself on the firm's values that make zero sense to anyone but himself - Company only wants to hire students from Ivy league or almost Ivy league Universities and Colleges - CEO uses football analogies to basically tell you you're not important and that "you don't bring in revenue" so you're not a "star". - CFO was hired after the former CFO embezzled money from company along with other major companies - New CFO was yet again another friend of Leadership team - CFO stepped in as HR (not qualified) and micromanaged showing lack of care for operation staff - CFO barks orders at his staff causing major stress to employees inside and outside the work place - Bulger Partners is NOT a positive working environment - Office structure has desks basically on top of one another, no privacy, no breathing space - If one person gets sick the entire company gets sick (trust, it happened in Dec) - Leadership team has promised employees a new office but will believe it when we see it - Rents out a WeWork space that is never utilized and operations staff is not allowed to use (wasteful) - Operation staff is expected to cover phone calls until 6 PM when the phone rings only about 1-2x throughout the day (also was not outlined in job description) - CEO will flip out on you if you bring a guest a bottled water over putting it in a glass - If you're a student coming out of school, looking for a consulting job, my suggestion to you is to really do your research on this company and make sure it's the right fit for you....

- CFO was recently indicted - reptutation with all clients suffered big-time - lack of project variety - I have spent the last 12 months doing tech DD (with very few breaks) - Senior team members average 60 years of age and are out of touch with modern technology, yet they drive most of the content and recommendations we deliver to our clients who are trying to make top quartile returns from modern software investments - talent development function is a mess - they recently realized that there are too many senior associates looking to be promoted to manager soon, so they just added a new title between senior associate and manager - too many admin staff - recently hired hospitality manager and two other folks that increase overhead / reduce bonus pool - CEO just wants to sit back, but collect most of the EBITDA - several people have heard him say "I want top talent, but I don't want to pay top dollar for it" - CEO is ruthless once you're on his bad side - recently started neglecting and drove his entire US banking team to exit the firm; also lost top consulting performers due to suspicious circumstances - I guess that behavior shouldn't surprise you since he's a cousin of Whitey Bulger's - Nepotism - CEO has a history of hiring his friends and keeping them around despite several team members pointing out their poor performance - Bad hires in key positions - half of consulting managers / directors group does not understand work streams of commercial and tech DD - as a result they're often not contributing anything to the progress of a project, but are merely hovering over the project team
