Pros

A place where you really make a difference both to clients and to the firm itself. Help clients solve their most important challenges. Play an important role from the start. Treated with respect. Nice people who truly collaborate with each other and with their clients.

Cons

Building increasing content diversity in the Americas. Too much of the work is bottom line cost savings versus top line growth.

Pros

If you’re fresh out of school and don’t have a specific skill and don’t know what to do, and you’re willing to be a yes man then yes it might be a good place to figure out your next step.

Cons

- Lack of pipeline for certain practices (and they will blame that on you saying your utilization is low but there’s nothing you can do at an associate level) - Full of people that feel good about themselves but they actually knows nothing about how actual industry work - No talent - Management will give you vague feedback that you can’t act on, For example, I got asked to “elevate the deck” but when I asked is it the messaging or is it the format etc they can’t give me anything specific - The expectation on work quality is inconsistent - Some manager level people can’t do excel which is shocking - You need to be a people pleaser in order to get promoted
