Pros

Lunches were free everyday Mon-Fri.

Cons

1. The CEO uses his background from Stanford to really break into family dynamics that are difficult essentially taking advantage of the "support" of the consulting. 2. This is a family/friends run business. They will only hire you to stay in a busy cycle when they have huge amount of clients and drop you when that cycle is finished. 3. This job is dressed as a consulting job but they don't care about impact and only care about how to keep the clients longer. They will make kids fail their assessments on purpose, point out issues that are minor and make it seem like a big deal. 4. Extremely disorganized org given that it was created more than 20 years ago and yet still everything is in a google drive. 5. Another classical ego dressed as a CEO. Please stop pretending this is goldman sachs and perhaps start investing on how to create a structure for your company (long overdue).
