Pros

- Was able to land a great exit opportunity - Great learning experience - learned a lot from top down - Trainings are informative - national training was a great experience (pre-covid) - Majority of people are really awesome to work with (and hang out). I still keep in touch with many even after leaving the company - Some Managers and Partners willing to dive into trenches during fieldwork when needed

Cons

- Ridiculous long hours on public companies - Seniors are powerless when planning team composition on recurring clients - Pay could be better

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.
