Pros

If you don't mind carving your own path, A.T. Kearney has a supportive culture that encourages an entrepreneurial style. I truly enjoy coming into work and collaborating with my colleagues. People work hard to play hard and there is a strong sense of camaraderie. As a quickly growing organization, there are many opportunities to tackle new projects and suggest initiatives and leadership is always encouraging. Everyone is passionate about what they do and very knowledgeable, it is fun working with such a bright group. Projects are engaging and you will constantly be learning if you seek to do so.

Cons

If you work in management services (HR, marketing, finance, admin, etc), there aren't as many training or professional development opportunities. You have to seek out your own. You also don't receive the same treatment in terms of pay scale, bonuses and inclusion in firm wide meetings.

Pros

If you’re fresh out of school and don’t have a specific skill and don’t know what to do, and you’re willing to be a yes man then yes it might be a good place to figure out your next step.

Cons

- Lack of pipeline for certain practices (and they will blame that on you saying your utilization is low but there’s nothing you can do at an associate level) - Full of people that feel good about themselves but they actually knows nothing about how actual industry work - No talent - Management will give you vague feedback that you can’t act on, For example, I got asked to “elevate the deck” but when I asked is it the messaging or is it the format etc they can’t give me anything specific - The expectation on work quality is inconsistent - Some manager level people can’t do excel which is shocking - You need to be a people pleaser in order to get promoted
