Pros

Most of the group below leadership is great, fun team

Cons

Leadership is not willing to let you shine, they want to control every process and be the main lead. Your career will not grow here. No creativity- this is a team that cares more about "getting things done" than doing things well. Projects are bad, working mostly on government jobs, industrial work, etc. If you are looking for local creative jobs- this isn't it. Not forward thinking- not willing to look at other ways of doing things, it's leaderships way or no way. Leadership picks favorites- they will get the "good" work. The rest of the team is pretty much left to figure things out themselves.

Pros

You will be working with great minds. People have their niches expertise and it’s wonderful to learn from them. Very professional and respectful behavior. Doesn’t feel like other consulting firms where you’re worked like a dog.

Cons

Sometimes it’s hard to build consistent work because people tend to hold on to their projects rather than transferring to junior staff and it’s mainly because the pressure to be billable is high.
