Solid pay but a cult-like, sales-focused culture. We are encouraged to all leave 5 star reviews as “owners”. DYOR. - Avis employé Cloud Architect Systems Evolution

Avantages

Principals get 65% of bill rate, which is solid for the industry. Company got very ‘woke’ during Covid, so there is considerable diversity now.

Inconvénients

Company is a cult. It’s staffed by a bunch of mid to late career PMs that are a level above offshore staff aug. Management talks a lot about AI without any of the MDs or CEO knowing anything about it or choosing to spend any time learning how to sell it, market it, or hire for it. The firm started hiring cybersecurity roles, cloud architecture roles, etc to avoid losing revenue associated with opportunities when clients would ask for those roles, but SEI treats them the same as the staff aug PMs and they choose not to invest any attention to branding and marketing those disciplines, leaving those individuals to often have considerable unpaid bench time. Most leave within a few years because it’s clear the company doesn’t value them- the ONLY thing the company cares about is “what did you sell this quarter”. If you are not a PM and you’re considering this company, seriously do your own research and make sure you can sell to 3 or 4 people in your network within your first year. If you aren’t comfortable with that, you’re not going to have a good experience at SEI.

Avantages

Fantastic company that is grounded in an ownership model, where when the firm does better it directly benefits all of the employees. This leads to an incredibly supportive and collaborative culture where people will go above and beyond to help everyone be successful. While still being a consulting firm, the clients are primarily local allowing for a strong work/life balance and not having to be a road warrior.

Inconvénients

Interview process was long, and the company is very selective.

Avantages

Local leadership (the Managing Director and Managing Principal) is fantastic, and the CEO is pretty cool too. It is hard to fully explain, but I have never worked at a place where leadership is so genuinely supportive, instead of just saying they are. This is true for not just management, but all of my colleagues. Leadership is also very transparent, rather than just claiming to be. It is very refreshing, and I am still surprised that my positive experience has lasted for almost a year with the company. The work is hard, but the support from my direct team and the great teamwork and friendship here really help reduce consulting stress. I also appreciate that management works hard (and usually succeeds) to put consultants on projects that fit their skills and interests: this makes each project much more rewarding.

Inconvénients

The Associate Program is new and still being developed. It can feel a bit messy, and there isn't a clear career path progression yet, which introduces a level of uncertainty. The program was started without a full plan for how to run it long-term (leadership openly shared this with us, which is a great example of the transparency I appreciate). Even so, I can see that leadership is working hard to improve the program. While there is still a long way to go, I am very grateful for the opportunity to learn from experienced consultants; they have all been incredibly welcoming, patient, and supportive. Honestly, these are the only real cons I have experienced so far.
