Pros

The partners saved some money by laying off during covid. That's probably a pro in their mind

Cons

Can't rehire after laying off during covid. Minimum 60 hours per week they say. Its actually Minimum 70. Pay raises are like 2 to 3% increase. Will try to not promote if they can pull it off. No sense of team. Everyone is there for themselves, and that comes from the top. Do not sacrifice your life for these people, they do not care for you. Your just a number to them.

So sorry to hear your experience is not positive. Your feelings are valid because you are entitled to your own opinions. Some of your facts unfortunately are wrong. Average pay raises are much higher than 2-3%. The firm is not looking to hold back on any promotions. Many respond to surveys that the team spirit they experience is what they most value. You are much more than a number and we are pledged to our core purpose; happy to help you find a way forward if you like and appreciate your candor.

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.
