Lack of diversity at managerial level

Business outlook

Pros

- Fast paced and good projects to work on - CEO and partners are very smart

Cons

-Lack of diversity at managerial level - If you are Norwegian and male, you easily get promoted to manager and eventually to partner. Forget about it if you are female. All partners are male. Male, Norwegian consultants get promotion very fast and eventually to partner. Look at the past consultants... It takes so much longer for a female consultant to become manager as compared to male counterpart. - Promotion based on relationship (mostly) - CEO is biased towards good looking people and Norwegian (talks more passionately and more to female employees during events e.g Christmas dinner.). If you are average looking dude, forget it. Move on. ;) - Consultants earn more than Analyst. - Overtime is common - Not suitable for people with family - Awful pension scheme - Compensation is not in par with the hours put in and market. - Send mostly Norwegians as expats to overseas markets.

Company culture is toxic!

Pros

Lot of learning opportunity, Quick feedbacks (6 months), regular international travel

Cons

Need to play politics game for promotions. Really strict timings. Bangalore is treated as a "Service office" and employees here are treated differently from the rest of the world. Very high attrition rate. Senior management in Bangalore lacks diversity and there is no transparency. You are expected to go above and beyond at all times and "keep improving" on the number of hours worked. Many people at the top do not have a personal life and it is expected to be followed by the juniors also. When asked for feedback, only changes that happened in the company were the number of parties. Big party culture (can be a pro if you are into that), gives a lot of chances to people to misbehave. Misbehaviour is blatantly ignored or hidden under the rug. Lots of hiring takes place but internal movement between products is NOT encouraged by management even though that is the mentioned in internal circulars.
