Pros

There are a lot of good CPE classes and relevant assurance comments. In addition, you learn a lot on the job. There are a few really good partners to work for. Also, they have a good 401k plan.

Cons

Management expects a lot of employees and there is apparent favortism. There is no work life fit as they advertise. Also, there is no women's initiative- even though they claim that they have a program. In fact, they discriminate towards women in general- especially women who are married with children. There is no diversity within management. Also, there were a number of older partners who were forced into retirement.

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.
