Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: former
Experience level: Junior

All talk and no action or substance. Profit before people or client.
Pros: Looks good on the resume. 

Good learning experience around personal brand management

Majority of people you work with are genuinely good, know what they're doing, are motivated and will help others. 

Excellent power point slides

A few partners would make good mentors. These are in the minority and their time is scarce.
Cons: Clients rarely get value for money, engagements filled with graduates or staff who have little subject matter expertise, charging upwards of 1800+ per day.

No effective internal development program. Most courses / training is at an introductory level

Counscellors are hit and miss, some look after their staff, others look after themselves and provide feedback that would be considered bullying / harrassment in other organisations

Lack of leadership throughout the business, especially at director / senior manager level. Organisation prioritises management over leadership, majority of staff dont know the difference and micro management is very common.

Long hours and low pay, but that is secondary to the above. Very high turn over.
