Pros

I joined CrossCountry and participated in the Audit Support program, during this time I got the opportunity to interview for a position in Advisory and after the program ended I joined the Technology Solutions group. Since that time I have learned a new accounting system and have spent the past 8 months building up my skills in this area and implementing this software at a number of our clients. I was able to transition out of audit and into consulting in a company where it was known that I had no advisory/consulting experience and where I felt supported to do this move. Many other Senior Consultants had made this move in the previous years and I was able to talk to these people about their experiences to make sure it was the right move for me. Culture wise, it is very different from my previous firm (Big Four), at Cross it is great to see that the partner’s doors are open and it is ‘normalized’ to go for lunch/coffee with senior leadership. There is also a great coaching family system that provides additional support outside of my immediate coworkers. Salary is very competitive, PTO has recently been improved and there is a very generous bonus system. Since the Tech Solutions group is still small, there is opportunities to get experience in a lot of areas (e.g. business development, proposal decks etc.)

Cons

On some projects longer hours are required. I have had some out of town travel for some client implementations, so I travel down on a Sunday and back on a Thursday. Multiple ongoing projects – sometimes projects drag on longer than expected so I could be working on a couple of clients at one time.

Pros

Some colleagues demonstrated actual competence at their work.

Cons

• Senior staff controlled which people received high-profile assignments and advancement opportunities based on personal relationships rather than merit or performance • Colleagues outside the established inner circle were routinely overlooked for roles and projects while less experienced people with better connections moved ahead repeatedly • I brought relevant qualifications and took on difficult assignments, but my career progression stalled because I lacked the relationships that mattered for advancement • Career development conversations and advancement decisions happened without transparency or input from those being affected, determined entirely by people in charge • The organization made no effort to acknowledge the pattern of favoritism or implement systems that would ensure fair consideration for all employees
