Pros

-Smart people -Interesting/challenging projects -Above industry average compensation The low Vault rankings aren't indicative of the great people and interesting projects at Strategy&. It's true the brand took a hit with the PwC acquisition which resulted in the loss of a lot of great Booz talent and company prestige. However, Strategy& still recruits top talent and works on top strategic engagements. It's a great place to learn the consulting toolkit and meet awesome people.

Cons

-Limited exit opportunities -Poor work/life balance -Growing pains from acquisition -Lack of diversity I'm not sure the PwC acquisition has reached its full potential; in fact, it may have hurt more than it helped. During the buy and hold period, a lot of partners were bidding their time until they could cash out resulting in poor management and unnecessary burdens on associates/sr associates. However, a lot of those partners have since left which has improved the firm a bit. Nonetheless, prestige and reputation took a hit which makes the brand less valuable in the open market for exit opportunities. Also, poor work/life balance which is no different than other top strategy shops.
