Melbourne Performance Improvement  - Good potential but currently missing the mark
Pros: Working with ambitious and like minded people
Great brand name
Great exit opportunities
Exposure to C-suite executives
Cons: Recruitment oversells the role
Lack of formal and consistent training
Elitist culture at times
Staff bookings are made on relationships instead of merit and ability
Many sub groups and 'Cliques'
Work load is inconsistent - some months you work around the clock, and other times you are benched for a couple of months at a time.
Weak pipeline
Too many graduates, consultants and senior consultants. Not enough work to consistently keep everyone busy. At times new starters and consultants are left to their own devices on the bench without much direction and guidance from senior leaders.
