Pros

Some teams are terrible and some are great so the key is being hired onto the right one. Don't take all of these great and/or bad reviews at face value - know that everyone's experience is deeply based on what team they are on. This is a good place to advance though if you're willing to put up with some of the BS, learn some skills and jargon and then take the promotion or prestige with a new job elsewhere.

Cons

There are a lot of issues being owned by private equity and benefits being cut often. Also it feels people are in and out the door often.

Pros

I work directly with excellent people. My immediate colleagues are collaborative, capable, and committed to doing high-quality work for clients.

Cons

The biggest challenges tend to come from the corporate side of the organization. Corporate processes and communication can sometimes feel disconnected from the needs of project teams, which creates unnecessary friction. In addition, benefits that were once stronger, including 401(k) matching and medical coverage, have been significantly reduced. A recent example is the increased emphasis on “utilization rates” in merit increases. While utilization is understandable in a consulting environment, tying it too heavily to merit can effectively penalize employees for using earned vacation time and can make PTO feel less like a real benefit.
