Pros

Before the current president, I had learned a ton, got to lead some teams and had a general good experience

Cons

Since the new president started - You will be expected to hold a high utilization every quarter or you will be let go. They've laid off people every quarter for the past 3 quarters. While in consulting services, you have almost no control over your utilization. You can ask your manager to be put on a project, but if it's full, or there are no projects that fit...you're out of luck. - Culture is broken, many people in consulting services are looking to leave because of the shift in focus from helping clients to overbilling clients. - They only want to work with large clients. They have terminated contracts with clients that had steady work because the client "isn't big enough". - There are big shake up happening in executive leadership and management. Lots of people leaving.

Pros

Work life balance is okay. Hybrid schedule. Depending on your manager they can work with you. Some really great and caring people. Generous PTO.

Cons

Pay is noncompetitive. The medical benefits are pretty bare minimum. Lastly, the company morale is in the tank overall. Missed several quarterly quotas, new CEO brought in to fix things. Nobody knows where anything is headed
