Consultant Testimonials

“The people here are the most remarkable group of people I’ve ever worked with. I have worked for two different offices and every time I meet with Fulcrum associates I’m very impressed by them—by the quality and the level at which they engage and the passion they have for the organization. Fulcrum has been a tremendous experience for me in terms of building a network, building confidence, solving customer problems, and getting hands-on experience in the business side of health care.” -- Tom L., Senior Business Analyst, Minneapolis

“Within the management and IT consulting field my top reason for choosing Fulcrum were the people. I didn't consider any other opportunities once I received an offer from Fulcrum. The management team is a high-performing group of individuals that don’t take themselves too seriously and they appear to work hard as an organization to maintain that feel." -- Brian D., Management Consultant, Dallas

“After working on a couple of Fulcrum projects, you begin to find the people within the company who inspire you, challenge you and make you excited. You reach out to them when you have a question, when you have a doubt or when you want a second opinion. It’s good to have people around you that support you in what you want to do and also help develop you when you need to be developed.” – Kim N., Project Manager, St. Louis

“One day during my first year here, the managing partner spoke to me bluntly. He said, “You are very smart—but everyone here is smart. To succeed as a consultant, you need to develop communication skills, business judgment, and problem-solving leadership.” This was a shock. I had thought being smart was all you needed to do any kind of work well. I realized I had to change my attitude and learn a whole new skill set. Of all I’ve learned here, this lesson stands out most.” -- Greg B., Financial Analyst, Des Moines

“I took a sabbatical after 2 years of intense project work. It changed my view of life. What I love about Fulcrum is that it's a place where we have the openness to give people time to develop and to learn from mistakes. You have a lot of freedom.” -- Sue R., ERP Consultant, Philadelphia.

“The experience of working at Fulcrum is different each day. I'd thought of leaving, but this variety always pulls me back in. And it's a thrill to be working on some of the most exciting assignments out there. We're out there to help people do a better job.” – Torrie V., Sarbanes Consultant, Phoenix.

“I enjoy the open, entrepreneurial culture here, which gives everyone the opportunity to help shape the company. Being able to work on a myriad of issues in different companies is also rewarding, giving me the opportunity to move into a new job every few months. At the same time, I get to work with an amazing group of bright, personable, and fun individuals.” – Scott E., Process Analyst, San Francisco.

“There are many good things at Fulcrum. These include the way people respect others and are open to different views and the opportunities you have to learn from many industries and many people. There are also other areas you can be involved in, even as new members of the company, such as training and recruiting.” -- Bob C., Program Manager, St. Paul.
