Pros

Lots of little perks like free soda and beer on Fridays. Have a lot of outings in the past but most are on weekends and why would you want to spend even more time with the people you work with?

Cons

Middle management is trying to make a name for themselves on the backs of the lower employees and have zero respect for people. There are many people considering leaving as this all started with the promotion of one person. Too bad as this used to be a great place to work, now certain managers seem to have become greedy at the cost of the culture that built the company.

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.
