Pros

Small atmosphere and helpful staff. Sometimes work was slow and there was nothing to do. Coworkers were friendly and helpful. It was a good learning experience. IT and technology was very impressive. The company had a nice flex program and gave lots of opportunities to work from home. Networking was easy. Lots of young people to work with. Upper management was easy to reach and accessible.

Cons

Lots of travel. Be prepared for fluctuating hours. Sometimes role was unclear. In this office, diversity was low. Not many minorities employed at all. Salary was a market rate and was not anything special. Career promotion track was typical of any public accounting firm.

Pros

Consultants were not overworked, and people are generally staying in their own lane. Strong knowlegeable teammates and lots of internal resources to grow. Work life balance was good.

Cons

I left during a time of transition, since the top practice director retired and the EBA leader took over as interim leader. This interim guy seemed to be waiting for something to take any action with current resources, and he was not too interested in rallying or figuring things out as a team. If he had expectations, they were never communicated to me. The lack of clarity was very challenging for me personally, and it came off as a lack of support. I think others in the team probably feel similarly.
