Pros
- No travel! Unless you're on the national team, 100% local. You can sleep in your own bed every night and actually have a life! - Hardworking, passionate workforce who is dedicated to high quality work, but everyone really values their personal lives (you can work in consulting and still have a family and hobbies!). This is driven from the top and expectations are set up front with clients to keep way more reasonable hours than the big firms - Feels like you can truly "be yourself" - company cares about you as a person; diverse group of people but all with really solid experience (many Big 4) - Collaborative/helpful workforce - very flat structure and no up or out model - Proactive in continuous improvement - still young enough, you can play a part in shaping things, but every week you get asked to provide input or some new initiative is launching which demonstrates the maturity and strong investments being made (founds are still around and truly care)
Cons
- Must be very self-driven and able to work autonomously without a ton of direction - it's "consulting for grown ups", but this is not for everyone - Heavy focus on technology projects (though not ERP implementations) - need to sell our ability to do even more larger transformation projects than we're already doing
