Pros

We were able to work remotely

Cons

Executive management doesn’t understand the business well, so their decisions cause a lot of damage to the company’s ability to provide good service to clients. Every important resource has been cut. Training, staffing, incentives, admin support, sales, R&D, marketing, advertising, tech upgrades. Some of these were eliminated completely. There was never a recognition program. Some members of executive management also do not have a positive view of employees, so they have a punishing and insulting kind of mentality. It spreads to lower level managers too, then they think it’s ok to be mean to their employees. Lots of unhealthy internal competition between colleagues and solution lines.

Pros

- Lots of opportunities to grow and learn a lot as you'll receive many projects and a ton of responsibility while being expected to hit the ground running and deliver with perfection with little to no training (fun!) - Work from home and flexible work arrangements are plentiful. - Some in-person social events (these were actually fun) - Associates and senior consultants are more fun/easy to work with and in-touch with what really mattered for clients

Cons

- Scarce learning and development trainings (not as important so long as your managers are training associates and being forgiving/not micromanaging and punishing for mistakes due to improper, formalized trainings) - Not innovative (e.g. minimal usage of automation--not just tech management systems but also outdated policies that mirror what innovation looked like in the 2000s, stale bread culture) - Poor work-life balance (see lack of outsourcing/tech adoption) - Unsupportive HR policies and benefits (e.g. leave policies, bonuses) - Out-of-touch, self-interested upper-level leadership
