Employee Reviews
“Being a small firm, we provide employees with lots of opportunities for learning and growth early on. Leadership puts a lot of trust into team members and trusts that we will deliver. There are also lots of opportunities to lead in where you are passionate. We provide lots of opportunities to grow, learn, and personal development.”
“Helping the world's leading technology executives solve their most challenging problems.”
“Highly customized approach with great dedication to executive clients' and organizations' need. Ability to build relationships at all levels of the client organization, often beyond the client tenure at any particular organization (many returning clients). Focus on a dynamic and increasingly relevant subject area in technology, digital, and data across industries.”
“This firm is best suited for someone looking for a fairly decent amount of autonomy in their role and an ambition to grow both themselves and the firm.”
“We have a small, knowledgeable team that can respond quickly to client demands and market pivots. We have the ability to work intimately and creatively with our clients that larger firms cannot replicate.”
Getting Hired Here
“An ideal candidate is one who is humble, hungry for knowledge and smart, while being strategic and analytical in thinking.”
“I would say we are very responsive and have a fairly fast interview process with three rounds. We are looking for people that can bridge the gap between technology and business and have the traits of hungry, humble & smart.”
“Key team members remain integral parts of the recruiting process, leading to some timing constraints when client work is busy. Many candidates are impressed by the multi-stage process, but some have voiced that it can take a long time from first interview to offer/rejection notice.
“The firm favors personable traits, but also consulting experience. It’s hard to comment because it varies by office. Some offices prefer younger associates; others, more experienced.”
“We typically get back to candidates within a week of an interview regarding whether or not they are continuing in the process or not. We are ideally seeking a hungry, humble, and smart individual with some consulting experience who is eager to progress their own career along with the firm's growth goals.”
