Navigant strongly emphasizes quality control, so you will be constantly checking Excel equations with a calculator and will soon have your favorite red pencil for checking off correct and incorrect equations. As a first or second year consultant, the build of your work will be quality checks and binder making.

As a first year in the company, I make binders, enter data, and do quality checks everyday. This means that I check excel calculations with a calculator and check them off if the calculations are correct. Yes, extremely boring! I get billed out at $200 an hour! That means that I make $200 binders!

There seems to be a very high turnover ratio here. I have seen many second years at the company leave to move on to another company in a different industry and a lot of the top management move on with their careers as well. You can take this two ways: either Navigant offers you great training so that you can further your career, or after two years at Navigant, you just can't take it and you have to leave.
