- Mind-numbing internal work that isn't discussed during interview process
- No internal growth (no incentive either to get promoted)
- Projects foster no to little growth for consultants
- Little to no flavor of different projects and clients - Either PM, Reg, or Risk
- Management treats employees like they are dispensable (similar to a staff-aug firm)
- 0 Company Culture or intentions of creating any
- Low retention rate (6 months to 1.5 years) - High turnover due to realization of what this firm truly is
- Bench is painful - Avoid it at all cost as opposed to other firms. You go from a consultant to an Office Admin working more hours than at client site
- Clients see you as a contractor which is significantly different than a "consultant". Responsibilities follow suit
- Will see a flatline or decline in personal and career growth within the first few months (all hires at each level will have an "Oh" moment which will kill any ambition they originally came in with")
