Pros

The company has a wide variety of clients. There is now more SEC exposure which is beneficial to individuals who are looking to move elsewhere eventually.

Cons

Compensation, company culture, company is currently too focused on obtaining new clients (especially SEC clients) while the offices do not have the resources to take on these new large clients. This causes the high performers to be overworked and feel under appreciated, and has caused a large problem regarding retention.

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.
