Employee Reviews


  • “Being welcomed into a close-knit and motivated team, and invited to help build a future for the organization.”

  • “Great team, super culture, and interesting work.”

  • “Inclusiveness and ability to provide suggestions for change (a newcomer can walk up to the CEO and make a suggestion - chances are, it will be implemented).”

  • “The company values are not just marketing - they are the core of every team interaction!.”

  • “This is the firm for individuals who would enjoy working in a flat structure, in small teams, with strong opportunities to be accountable from the start. It is also great for anybody who wants a work culture that is not the stereotypical ‘consulting firm’, with a close-knit team who enjoy life outside work.”

Getting Hired Here


  • “3-step interview, with calls in-between each step to confirm advancement. Clear and timely call backs.”

  • “Candidates go through two screening rounds. Then they have an interview day, typically on site, during which they meet at least 3 client facing consultants. The company is looking for individuals who fit the culture, can think analytically and autonomously.”

  • “Extension process that ensures we are selecting the right candidate for the firm based equally on cultural fit and competency.”

  • “Successful candidates think analytically, ask the right questions, and show clear interest in the pharma industry and consulting services.”

  • “Thorough interview process with case studies, personal, analytical interviews, and presentation.”
