Suffers from the same problems as other low end consulting organizations - Senior Consultant inCode Telecom Group Employee Review

Pros

interesting projects, exposure to next generation technology and business models

Cons

As other reviewers have mentioned, inCode experiences the same problems as other third-tier consulting firms. There isn't a significant demand for what inCode offers by C-level executives (or even two levels below). None of the engagements are of a critical nature. Therefore, projects must be aggressively sold and taken on at rock bottom rates with the pitch that inCode offers a good value. Anyone in the strategy consulting industry knows this is a terrible position to be in for both the company and employee. Instead of charging premium professional service rates, inCode employees are treated as outsourced labor. Over time, the reputation suffers because consultants don't have an incentive to do exceptional work.

Pros

- Consistently profitable company doing cool work in the industry - Tight-knit culture with unpretentious staff that operates inside an innovative multi-national Company. - Some of the smartest people around, both from a business and technology perspective. - More diverse client base in years past - Mobile Operators, Cable Companies, Private Equity firms and an increasing number of new clients. - Good benefits including no out-of-pocket health insurance, SPP

Cons

- 2015 was a tough year; 2016 looks much more promising but still work to do. - Need more scale to push firm to the next level given recent attrition. - Oftentimes new hires matriculating into a role have better earning potential than existing employees who have been around for a few years and climbed the ladder. Must resolve. - Access to Ericsson SME's is a massive advantage but it cannot disrupt the work the firm needs to perform. Ways of working must be fixed. - Need more training. Some good programs in place but needs to be more rigorous
