Pros

I think the place is good for your resume. It shows you put your time in. There are many opportunities to learn but at the cost of your outside life. They will work you hard at this place. Sometimes you feel like you don't know why you work so hard. Then, it hits you. It pushes you to keep working.

Cons

Flexibility is not really practiced here. They push everyone to work and to get clients. The work you do is not appreciated.

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.
