Poor work life balance

Consultant

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The consulting projects are great learning experiences and interesting.

Cons

Three major cons: 1) Lack of work life balance 2) Some of the consultants were pretty nasty and unprofessional. I would get calls at 11 pm ET asking me to finish projects by 2 am ET, believing this was acceptable practice. 3) Not a strategy management consultant shop. One person told me that the firm is a strategy consulting firm. They are not. I worked for a strategy consulting firm before. Completely different work, project economics and system set up.

Pros

Good benefits Lots of travel opportunities if you like to travel

Cons

Completely overworked. There are no CTAs or in-house CRAs. There are very few days at home for the admin. work that's required. There is definitely NO work/life balance. No compensation for doing extra work, but expected to do the extras for free.
