Pros

Nice people Excellent culture of helping one another Good mutual respect from other employees Good place to start your career - but don't stay too long.

Cons

Zero respect from higher management towards employees. No proper social events or training given, despide promises during interview process. High turnover rate for experienced people who know they can do better elsewhere. Salaries are woeful compared to similar organisations. No proper distinction on what qualifies one person as a senior consultant vs another as a principal or regular consultant. Expected to be in meetings from 08:30 until tea time if you're on a project. Lots of busy work and excel sheets, but tasks are very dull and uninspiring. The people who have worked there too long are like cult members (Proximites?). They have tunnell vision about how to approach tasks and are difficult to work with if you're not indoctrinated into their mindset. Ex CEOs of Proxima are given contracts to train staff in the most irrelevant and useless topics that you are expected to pretend to like.

Pros

Shame to not be able to fill this box... a year or so ago this would have been full..... considering being with the company many years!

Cons

Poor management. Employee welfare and mental health is not important regardless of what is posted on linked in. Male driven management who like to use bullying and intimidation are not management styles

Pros

- flexible working - collaborative environment - friendly coworkers - inclusive employer with DEI commitment signed off on by CEO - fun social events, as well as wellness, charity, and DEI focused events - merit-based culture: you are truly in control of your destiny at Proxima!

Cons

- learning-curve in ways of working post-Bain acquisition, as to be expected - ebbs and flows of consulting, as is typical of the industry
