Pros

-Push to get certified in things that interest you to increase your value -Elite consulting firm without the snobby attitudes (aka, a lot of very smart AND humble people) -You can get involved in some pretty cool stuff

Cons

They are a pump and dump company in terms of hiring. They clearly see it as when business is good, hire hire hire, then when it goes bad due to their poor decisions, you simply lay a massive amount of people off. I remember when they announced their EXTREMLEY ambitious growth target for FY23 (while everyone else in the world knew a recession was coming) that this would be trouble. I was unfortunately correct. These layoffs could have been avoided, or at the minimum, not nearly as bad,

Pros

Great self learning tools, autonomy over what you wish to study & learn. Good benefits although appears to be a tactic to buy people in the market. A great place for career consultants, bringing experience from top tier firms.

Cons

CEO is a robot. Has to read from script when presenting as do other Execs which gives the impression they do not have confidence or know the topic they are presenting. Came across a lot of people faking it till they make it, driving a culture of cutting and pasting concepts, PowerPoints etc with no understanding of the content. Many disgruntled clients, poorly solutioned deals driving long working hours. Often feels like a back office department to Accenture the parent co. Many workers on the bench, a climate of uncertainty prevails, paired with an anxiety at leadership level to scrutinise sales activity and sell for less.
