Does anyone have experience with MERU consulting? A small firm based in Atlanta that does restructuring/performance improvements. I am interviewing with them but saw comments about recent firm-wide layoffs right before bonus season so that's a bit concerning.

I worked at MERU and do not recommend it to anyone. At first things seemed fine but gradually you see why so many people have left negative comments online. Someone was put on PIP right after their first project, which is brutal. The hours could be brutal, despite what they claimed. Some partners are, just, toxic. Feel free to DM and I can share more specific examples.

Currently work here and think it's a great firm so far. Feel free to DM with specific questions if you want
