Pros

The only pro that occurs to me is that there were a handful for legacy PWC FTE’s on board, many being leadership. However, there was no meaningful or obvious benefit to having them on board that one would imagine there might be.

Cons

-Poor leadership and management. -Poor communication from management. -Unprofessional and hostile work environments. -Passive aggressive leadership, gaslighting staffers that are overwhelmed. -Leadership side bar conversations about how certain employees are incompetent. -Poor budgeting and project forecasting. -Leadership creates false safe space then leverages knowledge against staffers. -Toxic environment. -Career opportunities aren’t nearly as open as leadership advertises. Expect to be siloed to the engagement/ team.
