PROS: generous time off (10 sick, 2 floaters, 10 vacay to start, 10 annual company holidays… plus 12/24-1/2 is off and PAID), annual bonus, hybrid schedule (3 days/week in office typically Tue/Wed/Thu), “Summer Fridays” (we shut down at 3pm local time on Fridays between Memorial Day and Labor Day), I feel that TPTB are quite understanding of work/life balance.
CONS: we have CIGNA for medical/dental insurance (no other choice), workload can be quite heavy at times but also cyclical, I rack up loads of OT (however I don’t mind the extra $).
A lot also depends on the consultant you are partnered with, their personality and your relationship with them is HUGE. EZ also tries to maintain a 1:1 ratio (EA to consultant) wherever possible, I lucked out, mine is FAB. One thing I can say is that I’ve been with EZ over 5 years and they do treat us well. I feel as if my contributions are as important as everyone else’s, and I am a valued member of the team. The EA team in my office is VERY supportive and helpful - and they have been since day 1. I’ve always felt welcome and the atmosphere and culture is energizing.
Hope this helps!
I currently work for Egon Zehnder. What can I help answer for you?
what are the pros/cons of the role? do you feel liked the role is respected within the firm? how does the pace and workload compare to another very fast paced corporate job (if you can say)? are you working late all the time?
