      Pros

      There are 5 partners that know what they are doing and are willing to teach so long as time permits.

      Cons

      Everything you can imagine: 1) They hire people who are under qualified to high positions such as Managing Director/Sr. Manager. There is one in particular who knows nothing in tax and advertises being a partner. 2) Pay is super, super low....so if you want to be able to pay your bills without racking up debt, stay far away! The workers who perform the work get very little, to nothing to show for their efforts in terms of higher compensation and bonus. As an example, manager salaries after the 2016 raises were in the mid 80K's range, and no, I am not making this up! 3) Backstabbing is very high, so brace yourselves.

      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.
