Pros

Work life balance, great pool of talented people, great exposure to clients and industry events, highly respected in the industry, management is realizing that talent is key, becoming more professional in terms of structure, regionalizing decision-making autonomy.

Cons

Poor bonus structure, takes long time to advance to next level, Scottish-centric management, could improve people diversity, lacks clear career development/progression pathways for employees, need a graduate program to constantly attract young talent.

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
