Valuable industry exposure but inconsistent expectations

Senior consultant

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Great exposure to different industries and different types of projects.

Cons

Expectations constantly changing, different feedback on the same pieces of work depending on person, young team and quick promotions which could be a pro but also can create power dynamics.

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Supportive of new and working parents; parental leave and flexible working arrangements. Most people have a can-do attitude; part of the culture.

Cons

Internal procedures and job roles not well captured. Changes not well communicated and implemented across the business. Relies heavily on self management and self responsibility to understand priorities.

Nous Group Response

Thank you for sharing your experience. Self-management is a Nous hallmark, along with flexibility and a desire to avoid excessive red tape and prescriptive process, which can stifle flexibility and nuance!
