Pros

Some really smart, lovely people. Inspirational talk.

Cons

Getting ahead of itself, taking contractor work to make ends meet. Sell consultants on local model with no sales, but with no real career progression without it.

Pros

None to speak of. Beware if you value your professional reputation. If you're free labor, there's always a space for you.

Cons

Rapidly losing business due to poor practice management. Leveraging free labor while shunning experienced professionals. Good old boys club mentality.

Pros

Fun place. Good culture. Non stuffy Big4 atmosphere. Good work-life balance. No travel required, though there are ample opportunities to work in other markets if desired.

Cons

Managers don't keep their promises. Too many company events. Inconsistent level or resources - sometimes you work on projects with experienced consultants and other times you're joined by some folks with no experience.
