Pros

Dying firm in France : more than 40% of the working forces has volontary left the firm in 2008. The drain is continuing in 2009 with the management helping it!

Cons

This Company is not known outside of the US and outside of the SOX field. Except some of the "Manager and above", most of the staff is "ticking auditors" with no understanding of the business of their clients. Testing for SOX jobs is NOT consulting !

Pros

Good Culture, decent pay, not overworked too much.

Cons

Repetitive, meaningless, and boring work, hard to pivot out of this career once started. Also, the consulting career feels like such a fake job at times. Doesn't feel like real work. Makes you question your life decisions. I'd recommend any college grads to think about their future career goals first before joining. I joined on a whim and wish I spent more time interviewing. It's been incredibly difficult to pivot out of internal audit and sox compliance once you are in it. However, if you are really good at corporate politics and advocating for yourself you may be able to pivot out of the IAFA solution . However, not sure how that lends it self if you want to leave the company.
