Pros

Good colleagues. If lucky can get a good client and quality work to learn though very rare most consulting work is lowest grade

Cons

No stable leadership. No long term vision. Non transparent policies. Worst HR. Consulting function much similar to recruitment agencies. Top heavy organisation putting all cost margin pressure on lower and middle management. Lowest salary and worst benefit structure compared to market

Pros

Paycheck clears, that’s about it.

Cons

Started off with supportive leadership, teamwork and opportunities to grow. At the start of this year, entire department went toxic. Leadership stopped communicating, people getting fired, threats that you would get fired, being told that they are “reducing workforce” in august, creating ridiculous metrics that were impossible to meet due to their own bad technology. Coworkers started getting mental and physical health issues trying to keep their jobs, and many are trying to leave. I have never seen such a toxic workplace in my 30 years of employment in this industry.
