Being small and growing quickly implies a large potential for personal growth within the firm. Career reviews are held twice a year. They form the basis for promotion, salary increase and bonus level. They are conducted by the seniors of the firm, and are detailed so that you will know what expectations the firm has, how well you met them in the previous six months, and what your challenges are in the months to come.

There is no minimum time in tenure. Professionalism, the capability to get the things done which the client requires and to communicate them the right (executive) way, the capability of coaching and making people grow are the sole criteria for promotion. You will get as much responsibility as the firm believes you can carry. There are four levels of seniority in the firm, from junior consultant to manager and partner. Your career path from one level to the next, and the degree of responsibility you will be given at each of these levels will be dictated by your performance, and the perception by the firm of how much more you can carry.

Our interest as a firm and yours as a professional are congruent: the broader your skill base, the larger your experience, the better off we both are.

Estin & Co will do its best to make sure that your weaknesses get addressed, that you are given the opportunity to develop your capabilities in as many areas (finance, modeling, strategic segmentation, valuation, etc.) as our profession covers.

To make sure that this mechanism works, we conduct at least four times a year case reviews with every consultant in the firm, as to communicate to her/him where we see weaknesses or strengths, and to establish what development priority the firm sets for her/him.
