Pros

Personal atmosphere; overall good, qualified individuals; good leadership from senior consultants

Cons

Upper management is stale and tends to live on clouds. Horrible morale amongst the Consultant and Consultants II's who are treated more like machines rather than people. Work is very repetitive if you get stuck doing SOX 404 engagements. Extremely cliquey management who will agree with whatever the ranking directors say regardless if true. Review system in place only has formal reviews on projects worked 80 hours or more, which means you may only receive one review a quarter, and are often cliquey and biased to personal feelings rather than professional.

Pros

Compared to other consulting firms, the flexibility in the management here has been amazing. In my experience, teams do whatever they can to get the job done but also acknowledge that we have lives outside of work and are accommodating to that.

Cons

Pay is not competitive compared to other consulting firms and leadership is not as innovative as they could be.
