Pros

great place to forge relationships with other young hard working professionals. free snacks. the free wheeling management style can make it interesting to get experience. attempt to balance personal and work life.

Cons

A "me too" management consulting firm. Narrowly focused on solutions in the risk management analytics space. Poor focus on knowledge building. More seat-of-the-pants management style. Even with the expertise in risk management and having worked extensively for clients that no longer exist in the financial services space were unable to understand the magnitude of the financial crisis. Infact had a document circulated to consultants talking about the exaggeration of the impact of the crisis put out by one of their rising star partner . These were meant as talking points to advise clients that they should continue with their programs as if business-as-usual.

Pros

Good culture, solid pay, good benefits

Cons

Same as with most big companies. HR a little too focused on DEI and feel good inclusion initiatives over things that matter to most employees and clients. Top management messaging is generic and seems forced. But all senior leadership seem fairly genuine and good people vs. hyper focused on dollars alone.
