Most of the team who were either Consultants or Managing Consultants) was super friendly and very helpful.
What I wish was different
Work was quite bland. My manager was terrible. Barely spent any time trying to help new recruits adjust and was warned by many to not approach him for questions even though managers claim they're approachable!
Advice
You can be here for the experience but they do rotate workers a lot because they keep hiring and then firing... There's also a lot of pressure to work well beyond your 8-hour shift (incl. late nights). You'll be scared to say no to that. They've lied to me about the rules and expectations of job. But you can't expect much decency from a firm whose main purpose is to help bankrupt companies recover as much money as they can for themselves.

Real Estate Analyst
June - August 2019 • New York City, NY
What I liked
Fantastic team with a UConn alumni there, great company and the work was constantly changing and always interesting
What I wish was different
Operational roles like HR and Payroll were quite unresponsive sometimes
Advice
Ask questions nonstop and be a real person - don't think that you have to be professional all the time. The analysts and associates are only a year or two older and definitely not old, corporate drones

Hands on experience with financial modeling and opportunity to work with experienced and knowledgable professionals.

Do your best to get your hands on a project that you can be the analyst on so that you have some real experience and have something to talk about in other interviews if you choose to do something else later on.
