At a Glance
“The people and the roll-your-sleeves-up attitude.”
“We most often work on the highest executive priority challenges. Big, meaty, complex problems and transformations.”
“Growth. Entrepreneurship. Private ownership helps drive longer-view of investment in talent.”
“Meritocracy with faster-paced promotions and industry-leading compensation for high performers”
“Having to find your own work. Cross-practice dynamics.”
“Expectations are high, and the workload can be intense. The firm is lean by design, which means you often wear multiple hats and need to be comfortable operating with limited structure.”
“Our firm has grown quickly and is now substantially large. My hope is that we maintain the quality of our people and the culture that has enabled our success as we continue to grow and scale.”
“There is little incentive to meet and collaborate with people outside of your practice because of the bonus/payment structure.”
