Pros

Permits employees to work from home. 1 extra week off for volunteering. $350 stipend for personal health.

Cons

Just when you finish training the newly hired consultants, they will fire you. No job security. Had 4 riifs while I was there. They talk a good talk - but it’s just jargon & senior level management operate the opposite way & help develop your career & support you. Look elsewhere.

We're proud that since before the pandemic, we haven't conducted any companywide layoffs - and we attribute that to the strength and stability of our business. This type of decision-making we take very seriously - and we are very mindful in making measured and thoughtful decisions when hiring talent.
