Employee - Associate/Consultant

If you play you get paid

Employee - Manager

I have to qualify the answer as NH may be a fit for some. For those who want to do BD and are ok with the likelihood of generalist consulting roles, it might be appropriate. I would advise those with less desire to be entrepreneurial and a more specialized skillset to vet NH carefully to ensure they can do the work they want to do.

Employee - Manager

Culture is entrepreneurial, political and interpersonal.

Employee - Manager

Still relatively unknown in the consulting space but investing in developing a market presence and reputation.

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

A new comp model was implemented in 2015 . causing many consultants to leave the firm. No one in the HC practice has made their metrics for the year

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

The current Health Care leadership is weak, the HC leader has never worked in any part of health care . The overall leadership cannot set a clear vision

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

North Highland has out grown their current model. The Health Care practice is dysfunctional with no direction or plan to grow.

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

Reliable executor of someone else's strategy

Employee - Associate/Consultant

Focused, driven, fair

Employee - Manager

solid leadership

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

No growth. They take pride that they don't have an "up or out" policy. Consequently, they don't feel obligated to help you grow or pay attention to your growth or recognize that you're ready for the next level.

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

Not trustworthy. All about their own growth. Lower level folks who are engine of the business are not taken care of properly. Sweat shop attitude.

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

Base is 40% lower than market rate to begin with. Bonus components are paid quarterly depending on personal utilization (hours billed to clients), sold revenue. Capped.

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

Since bonus is directly tied to billable hours... You lose all the bonus for at least one quarter or more depending on how you plan the vacation.

Employee - Manager

Anythinmg for the next project

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

Culture used to be very good when the founders were running the show... Now it's under the ESOP/employee owned as original founders were bought out by the employees. Now it's all about value to North Highland vs value to clients... No longer ask the questions... What is the right thing to do? Are we doing the right thing?

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

Used to be a great firm. Culture was great. Leadership has steadily driven toward being a cookie-cutter Big 4 firm as they existed in the 90s. More staff augmentation type projects than true consulting in most locations and most accounts. May be able to recover, but not with current senior leadership.

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

Autocratic, which is odd given the historical precedent of being a collaborative type firm.

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

Trying to move closer to market on base and bonus, but still missing it. The lack of travel for most somewhat makes up for it, but there are other industry and consulting options which pay better, hence the departure of lot of employees. The ESOP, while a good idea, has turned out to be disappointing.

Employee - Principal/VP/Director

Can be / was very collegial and was driven by the charisma and capabilities of the founder and former leaders of the company. Not as true currently.
