Pros

Job and duties were good. OT not a problem if you had to get something done.

Cons

Management at all levels is sorely lacking. Micromanagement is a problem as well there is no respect for your time or timelines if you are one of the worker bees. All about the bottom line and will take advantage of you. You got to be careful who you cross. Like high school as many are gossipy.

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.
