Pros of working at West Monroe

Remote work is possible, but not probable. It is a crusty old career consulting driven environment, with folks that are nice.

Cons of working at West Monroe

The leadership (Any C-exec) is and has been a career consultant, with minimal actual experience implementing the promises they sell to customers. Problem is, what they sell is now the same type of spew you could get from feeding GenAI the same data. They just executed round 1 of a 2 layoff plan to entice buyers or promote dispersing the company to PE. Very forced culture. Leadership thinks returning to the standards pre-covid are going to save them. The world has changed, and these guys spent $MM on trying to re-instate a culture, instead of recognizing the people that performed. If you do join, don't expect a big payout at the end, as the company is in financial distress.

West Monroe benefits

Diversity of projects.

What do you like best about West Monroe's CEO and the leadership team?

I used to think Kevin was aligned with the future, but his inability to keep CFO's and constant alignment to the problem child G.M. has completely set the company in a tail spin.

How would you improve West Monroe's culture?

Stop worrying about frickin culture, and start worrying about what it takes to keep employees. Culture is not what keeps employees, its what evolves over time with consistency, transparency and trust.
