      Makes consulting as humane as can be

      Consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      - 12.5% to 15% pay raise in Singapore across ranks - Quarterly bonuses (like airdrops) to retain staff - New swanky office at 79 Robinsons Road - Generous meal allowance budgets - Strong boundaries and respect for weekends, and personal time off. In the event you get a engagement case which is too intense, after the case, you can recompensed 3 days of leave - Cigna health coverage is comprehensive - Open culture - everyone is willing to share, and talks openly about why they are here. No backstabbing

      Cons

      - No backstabbing cos everyone's too busy and just wants to end work on time - Very focused on working, lacking in terms of culture and inter-office bonding - Experience consultants are drawn into different pastures (tech, crypto, investments) and firm longevity is low (average <3 years tenure). As a result, institutional knowledge is lost

      Great place to learn, but prepare to be worked to death

      Associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Learning environment is unmatched - great colleagues and a rigorous approach to problem solving. You will learn a lot every day, like it or not!

      Cons

      Although they advertise great "Work life balance" it is a joke. Only better than investment banking. Be prepared to work 60-80+ hours every week and be constantly reporting to managers. If you don't like the job there are 10,000 applicants looking to replace you, so either work like a dog or make room for the next guy who will.

      Prestigious background is more important than practicality

      Senior individual contributor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Work with talented group of people C-level exposure Plenty of reference materials

      Cons

      Most of the mid to senior leadership in GAMMA won't pass basic coding test, as a result junior members learn nothing from the them. Without proper prior industrial experience, they fail to create a proper career track. As an insurance and to secure projects, PhDs are hired and got their career progression accelerated. Delivers terrible product ( compared to QB ) to unwitting client as a result.
