Thank you!

The culture is honestly pretty good here. I made a lot of friends here and projects are generally fun to work on. I have been with the company for 2 years now and was promoted last year to associate. I am looking to get promoted to manager next year. The progression is analyst 1.5/2 years-> associate 2/3 years -> senior associate or manager -> director -> SD -> MD.

Great culture, great people and better WLB than most...but that's what they trade you for higher comp. Definitely below market in my opinion, but I appreciate the other perks more than that at the end of the day.

One other thing I will note...if you want consulting for exit opps, probably not the best choice. No name recognition.

I left as an analyst after 2 years and get paid more than managers now, so yeah I agree the comp is definitely below competition but did have amazing teammates and great wlb. I also enjoyed the traveling so once that stopped, I needed something new and different.
