Private Equity Death Spiral

Pros

Good starting salary and very good benefits. The Professional Services rank and file personnel are, on the whole, very experienced and excellent consultants.

Cons

The company has been in a private equity death spiral for years now. Each time the company gets sold (every 2 years or so now) you get new execs, new lists of priorities, and new value statements. Yearly salary increases have gone from decent to now barely keeping up with inflation. "Cheaper and faster" ethos is turning the company into the Walmart of consulting firms.
