Working for a woman-owned firm has changed my worldview. My ideas are taken seriously. People lift each other up as experts and build each other up instead of competing. I'm continuing to stretch my knowledge and expertise and I value that the owners and execs put their trust in me.

ILLUME is truly collaborative. Employees come from a number of different fields with different levels of experience and education. ILLUME is successful because they are one of the only truly interdisciplinary spaces I have ever seen!
Employee - Analyst / Associate / Consultant
This company is innovative and challenges employees and clients to think outside the box.
Employee - Analyst / Associate / Consultant
The culture is driven by a team that values collaboration, inquisition and asking questions. Since some employees are remote, we try to use technology to try to make meaningful connections with each other. The projects are fairly fast paced, but the team is supportive in case someone needs help with a task or deliverable.
Employee - Analyst / Associate / Consultant
I would recommend this firm because it is a very fun, flexible place of employment. The leadership is interested in making a positive impact on the world, which is inspiring and exhilarating. Additionally, the leadership works hard to cultivate employee camaraderie and is interested in allowing staff to pursue their interests.

Sara and Anne started the company with the idea that they wanted to provide an opportunity the greatest level of individual success for their staff while allowing staff to also prioritize their life. They do this, and then some. They are deeply committed to not only the success of their company, but also to those that work there, and we are establishing systems to ensure that this focus is retained as we grow. Beyond the culture-focus, the company is very much looked to and watched by the industry. We are working to maintain fluidity and flexibility in our skills and services that will be of greatest benefit to our clients looking forward. The landscape of our industry is quickly evolving; it is our ability to evolve that will continue to drive our success. Last, from a professional standpoint, individual growth is so important. There is no limit to what we can go after and do. Innovation is strongly encouraged (even if it means failure at first). All these factors combined - along with the smaller details that aren't making it to the surface of this commentary - contribute to ILLUME being a fabulous place to work. I'm proud to be a member of this team.

There is a commitment to integration of our staff and making the company the best to work. We recently held our annual retreat, where we flew all staff into our central office location to meet for two days. As part of the retreat we spent a considerable amount of time brainstorming, in small groups and as a full team, opportunities for improve (or reinforce) culture, connectivity with each other, and ensure our work is meeting our personal and professional needs. We, as a senior leadership team are moving very quickly on the ideas that came out of that retreat so we don't lose momentum and show we are taking staff input very seriously.

Although a relatively new and small firm, Anne and Sara have ingrained a culture of support that has not wavered. Support comes in many forms: support for creativity, support for doing the type of work people want to do, support for finding resources to be sure to not overwork or overburden staff, and support for family and outside-of-work life. In consultancy, where billable hours drives company profit (and as a result demands) this is unique for a company; many give the balance and support discussion lip service, but don't do it in practice. They do it in practice.
