Current Employee - Principal/VP/Director
The familial culture, the interesting projects focused on growth, and a great balance of being in office vs traveling make this the ideal place to spend a career in consulting.
Current Employee - Partner
Cambridge has an "each of us and all of us" culture which encourages collaboration and taking initiative at all levels. It really helps foster the family feel we have within the firm.
Employee - Partner
Interesting work + phenomenal culture. Sharp focus on growth means you do the most exciting/interesting work in the consulting world. The "Each of Us and All of Us" Culture has been a constant in the 11 years I've been at TCG, and it leads people to treat the firm like a family and colleagues like family members.
Employee - Partner
The firm has always been anchored in the motto 'Each of Us and All of Us.' People are treated like friends and family, not resources. There is formal training, but the real training is all through informal mentorship and open door policies in the office. When someone leaves TCG, they always comment on the people and friendships they leave behind, and often they come back for happy hours, holiday events, etc. I don't think this is a thing you can implement through process, it's just always been the way the place feels, and so the leaders who have been at TCG a long time have it ingrained in them. It's also a culture focused on great client outcomes, rather than hours and face time. So there's a lot more flexibility on the how and when and where you get things done, and I think people really value the relative autonomy that comes from that, particularly as you grow into greater responsibility.
Employee - Partner
First, I think people recognize TCG's focus on growth strategy. We don't do all types of consulting, and people know that, but for growth I think our name is up there with the best of them. Second, clients in particular always comment on the fact that TCG consultants seem "not like other consultants." I think it's because TCG folks really value collaboration with the client team, vs. forcing something down their throat.
Employee - Senior Associate/Consultant
We are working on very exciting and impactful content, specifically centered around product innovation, growth strategy and go-to market strategy. The firm provides a great opportunity to grow professionally, while offering a better work life balance than many competitors.
Employee - Senior Associate/Consultant
It's a very close knit community. Having worked for a larger firm previously, I believe that The Cambridge Group has much more of a start-up, family type of feel. People here are very close and the company feels much less transient than some other firms where the faces in your office seem to change on weekly basis.
Employee - Senior Associate/Consultant
Very strong market reputation - I receive constant emails from internal recruiters and headhunters inquiring about potential industry opportunities that are in-line with my desired career path.

Expense policy is very generous (for late dinners or cabs home), and we are able to take advantage of all of Nielsen's discounts and promotions (discounts on bike sharing, gyms, cell phone bills, tickets, hotels, car dealerships, and much more).
Employee - Analyst
The culture here is all about collaboration and mutual success. The firm greatly emphasizes the need for development at all levels, and encourages anyone willing to "flex up" to the next level as often as possible. This way every member of the team is engaged, contributing, and happy.
Employee - Analyst
We are known as the "talent factory" of Nielsen- it's where driven, engaged consultants go to practice growth strategy. Our ability to provide strategic insight in areas like market segmentation and consumer targeting is best-in-class, and our clients know it. When they really need to understand the consumer, they know we are the best.
