Pros

Proxima can be really great for growing in your career and the type of work you do. The people are all very willing to be part of a team and very collaborative and supportive of each other. PTO is great and benefits overall have improved greatly. The Chicago team was flown to the UK last year for our annual conference!

Cons

Travel can be challenging at times but it comes with the job. IT and network are always down (UK based) so it becomes a challenge to be productive. Diversity is seriously lacking and it seems very little is done to improve it. Unsure it’s even a priority. Last week alone ALL the interviews for an EA position we’re Caucasian ladies. Chicago is so diverse so it’s hard to understand why we can’t even interview more POC, let along, hire, when we talk about hiring goals it should be more than just gender.

Pros

Proxima's entrepreneurial nature sits at the core of its business. The company provides opportunities for those seeking to think outside the box and make a difference. As a woman in the workforce I feel that I've had a good opportunity to grow, develop and accelerate my career. Performance is based on your ability to deliver great results. The collaborative network promotes knowledge sharing and support across the firm which enables individuals to succeed in various client environments and in their individual careers.

Cons

Like any consulting firm, delivery to clients is the top priority so some days can be long but Proxima does a good job of acknowledging this and providing flexibility to its employees.
