Business Outlook

Pros

In A.T. Kearney you can learn a lot, you can work with board - level executives and you can meet great people.

Cons

Compensation is far beyond other management consultancies and the promotion process is unclear and unfair. It is rarely dependent on the project performance and is highly dependent on relations you have with partners from the region.
