Pros

Some nice people Many smart people Very good salary

Cons

Horrible Managers that don't know how to be managers. Folks, just because somebody was good at this or that technical thing doesn't mean they'll know a thing about managing PEOPLE. Huge amounts of hours that are never enough Many people with personalities of rocks.

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.
