Pros

Some really nice people are working there, especially at a junior level. The juniors get on very well, and meet after work. Non-Spanish people come from top UK universities. As for a consultancy hours are very good (many juniors leave at around 6-7pm), however occasionally you would get on a project that requires you work very late hours (mainly for the face time rather than for actual workload).

Cons

They do not manage their workforce effectively - junior people are without any or little work most of the time. Projects are very very dull, very little strategy work, and in the UK they work pretty much with one client, so there is very little variety in work (and risk for the company's future). Very unprofessional - you get a lot of lies in the recruitment process, seniors don't always act and talk professionally around clients, and there are some weird practices in place (e.g. a manager can perfectly ask you to stalk a client around the office...), HR people avoid putting things black on white and you can never prove that they have promised/told you anything. The salary is not competitive to what is offered in other consultancies. I only recommend to join them if you are terribly desperate for work.

Pros

- Travelling: I can definitely say that Management Solutions allows developing your career travelling around the various offices they have throughout Europe and North/South America, which is an amazing opportunity. - Teamwork: The Company is organized as any other consulting firm, and you can definitely distinguish between categories, but this is part of their success. as it isn't a huge company, you get to work with your managers very often (if not on a daily basis), which allows you to improve as a consultant faster than ever expected. - Trainings: another important aspect of the company is their training programs and sessions. Starting by a simple “Introduction to Consulting” and going through many different sessions, you end up learning working tips and topics you’ll always find useful. - Diversity: I think it’s hard to run into a company with so many employees from different countries, which is a great network. - Young! The average age is very low compared to other consulting firms. - Yearly merit increase. - Yearly meetings, which allows meeting co workers from other projects and clients.

Cons

- Their business in the US is small; they don’t have too many different clients. - Long working hours (very similar to other consulting firms).
