Pros

I just started, but I can see a huge difference here as compared to the large consulting firm that I just came from. The interview process, the on-boarding process, and time at the office when not on a project: always consistent - you get treated well. It's early to tell but it seems, so far, like this is the place to be - a great company with lots of smart, humble, kind people, with a vision, a future and the plan to make them happen. I have an opportunity where, if I work hard and use my technical and soft skills well, I can further my career, help clients, and help my company all at the same time. Win-win-win. It's nice to be at a company where you have an opportunity and the chance to love your future. Just give me a chance, that's all I need - I can do the rest. Oh, and did I mention, no travel!

Cons

Not sure of any cons yet. Maybe more PTO, 401K match? It's all relative, and part of a big picture, so tough to complain.

Pros

people are very kind and its a great network to then have for life

Cons

I had 5 managers in 4 years, 3 of which promised me a promotion which I never got I was strung along in a seperate global team for a year and a half and then when I finally was moved to that group they fired 80% of us it's now an up or out company and people are leaving faster than business is coming in, that's been happening for 2 yrs my mental health was so bad i had two burnouts in a single year my last manager emotionally abused me and made me feel like i was a terrible person. I left believing that was why I was fired until i chatted with another former employee of this manager work life balance WAS a thing and in the last two years it's now that consultants are also responsible for selling, travel is a non-negotiable but expectations for travel are not transparent and can impact your yearly review, straight up not enough work and then senior management will make you feel bad for it
