Pros
Work with the latest technologies, diverse clients, and across the national landscape. Transparent salaries, clear growth trajectory, heavy reliance on frameworks and systems thinking, opportunities to grow both soft skills and technical skills. This company has a strong focus on growing and caring for the whole person - think of the PERMAV model of wellbeing. Leadership is transparent to a degree unheard of at similarly sized firms, such as during the chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic, when leadership implemented monthly free form Q&A town halls, including answering anonymously submitted questions. Career mentorship is built into the Pariveda model - you have a mentor who is not your manager who is partially accountable for your success. The people are fantastic - hard working, selfless, personable, and very bright.
Cons
Consulting is an inherently volatile industry. At times, joining new projects and engaging with new problems can lead to feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, or imposter syndrome. Healthy approaches to these problems help, but there is a factor of stress which must be considered.
