Absolutely no work/life balance whatsoever, consultants are purely seen as revenue generating and are often scared for their jobs if left sitting on the bench for too long, and let's face it, that happens a lot with such few clients
Consultants are treated appallingly by HR through broken promises, lack of transparency on salary & bonus figures, and a dinosaur-aged approach to employee engagement
No new IP produced, no thought leaders despite branding themselves as insight-leading.
Relying upon 1 magical client that falls for their overinflated hype and proposal process
Inner boys club acts as top management, has beens who are completely removed from the latest trends in the market and are too busy doing 'management stuff' to contribute to delivery or company development
Seen way too many employees pushed out the door, and these were the ones that were challenging to be the next leaders within the organization, those that were generating new ideas and bringing new clients to the company. Shocking treatment of those who devoted their passion for such a lousy cause
