Pros

Depending on who you work for, there are some really great managers and the company is filled with very intelligent people with plenty of opportunities to learn.

Cons

It used to be a great company, yes times have been bad for most companies and FTI was not immune to this although for a good majority of the time they were still performing well. The problem is that nothing was ever invested in the corporate functions of the company and/or money was put into the wrong programs and areas. There is no culture, which isn't entirely an issue but don't expect to feel like you belong to anything outside of your group. They are feeling the pain now as many of the good employees have been leaving over the past year. There is a lot of talk about how much senior management cares and wants to invest in the employees, but its a lot of lip service. There are other consulting firms of similar size that are much better in terms of corporate culture, opportunities for advancement, etc.

Cons

* Lack of consistent leadership visibility and clear strategic direction across parts of the organization. * Communication from senior leadership can be limited, leaving employees without a clear understanding of priorities and long-term goals. * Decision-making often feels reactive rather than proactive. * Accountability and partnership are inconsistent across teams and business segments. * Employees may not always feel adequately supported when raising concerns or navigating challenging situations. * Leadership teams are often stretched thin, which can impact coaching, communication, and overall employee support. * Performance evaluation and promotion processes can lack transparency, making it difficult to understand how decisions are made. * Employee experiences can vary significantly depending on team, manager, and business segment. * Opportunities for feedback exist, but employees do not always see meaningful action taken in response to recurring concerns. * Collaboration and cross-functional alignment can be challenging at times due to differing priorities and expectations.
