Not what it used to be

Business Outlook

Pros

Some of the people are fantastic. Interesting projects most of the time. You can learn a lot in a short space of time if you get on the right projects.

Cons

Profit-focused and reactive leadership team (excessive hiring followed by excessive redundancies and pay cuts). Low morale and high attrition, culture not what it once was. Leadership does not listen to employee feedback. Slowly merging with the rest of PwC and outsourcing work away from UK team as Strategy& leadership struggles to defend its own value prop. Bonuses almost non-existent. Highly political environment.

Terrible culture with no mentorship and unrealistic expectations

Business Outlook

Pros

Salary is in line with MBB / has prestige for other roles Partners are nice overall, but you rarely deal with them except for mainly project read out reviews and the one-off coffee chats

Cons

Managers/Senior Managers/Directors have extremely unrealistic expectations, and I have heard many stories of recent grads being quickly counseled out. Mainly staffed on due diligence projects that require as much Excel knowledge as investment banking to be able to perform well in creating cost baselines. Often passed up for interesting projects to Associates or the AC team in India because their project rates are cheaper. If you have another offer from another consulting firm, I strongly suggest you speak with employees to learn more rather than chase the brand name.
