Okay company - Consultant A5 Employee Review

flexible work environment, with mostly remote work. dedicated and incredibly smart team that is always willing to help each other out. altogether an excellent place with an excellent team.

most cons are really related to consulting in general. it's hard to work with difficult customers and it can be hard to know who would be difficult until there's already a contract in place. plus sometimes time sensitive emergencies pop up that require work during non standard times, but that's pretty rare. last piece is it can be tough coordinating with countries like China and India when trying to get a multi country project due to time zones, but it's unavoidable.

- Great processes around CPQ, if that is your specialty you will do well here.

- Lack of diversity. The employees at this company are almost entirely white and indian men. Very few other people of color represented and very few women, even fewer on the leadership team. - Groupthink culture where feedback is not solicited and ideas that come from anyone below leadership level are ignored or rejected - Intentionally flat structure and autonomous culture without any consideration of personal and professional development - 12 days of PTO for every employee without sick days, personal days, bereavement, etc. and they are not open to negotiation on this - No professional development planning or goals Also, if you are a job-seeker, know that at least a few of the reviews on this glassdoor page are from leadership, and you can (& should) do a quick LinkedIn search of A5 employees/locations/job functions to verify that.
