Employee Reviews
- “ECG has a team-oriented environment where consultants are able to work with other members of the team and help manage workloads, a mentorship program for younger staff consultants, and a level playing field with senior managers and up where you get exposed to working with them on every project.”

We believe this is an essential part of the firm's culture and affords casual personal interactions between junior team members and more experienced consultants, managers, principals, and partners. We also support those who are classified as remote and make effective use of Teams and other mediums for both firm-wide communications and client interactions.”
- “Your advancement at the firm is determined by your work ethic and commitment.”
- “The work is interesting and meaningful, but ultimately it is the people who create the environment and experience that has kept me at the firm for the majority of my career.”

- “The ideal candidate exclusively wants to work with clients in the healthcare space, wants to work in consulting with relatively little travel, is willing to learn and takes feedback, and is ready to put in really productive 45–50-hour weeks.”
