Looks better from the outside - Associate Director EMM Consulting Employee Review

- There are genuinely wonderful, capable, and supportive people across the business. - You can gain exposure to interesting projects and broad consulting experience.

- Technical capability is under strain. The business has lost a number of experienced specialists, and remaining staff are often stretched across roles or expected to deliver beyond their depth. In practice, this affects mentorship, delivery quality, and confidence in the work. - Leadership and workforce planning appear reactive rather than well sequenced. Periods of hiring ahead of sustainable pipeline, followed by redundancies or restructuring, create uncertainty and weaken trust in decision-making. It also places additional pressure on teams already carrying delivery risk. - The culture has shifted toward output and efficiency, but the underlying systems, planning, and leadership capability have not matured at the same pace to support that shift well. The stated values of integrity, humility, and respect are less visible in how decisions are made and how people experience the workplace. The result is a culture that can feel transactional, uneven across teams, and at times burnout-prone.

Great people, really good flexible working policies, opportunities to work cross-teams and travel around Australia

There is a heavy mid-section of employees so career progression can be difficult.
