Pros

great brand to have on the CV and great training in the academy.

Cons

salary is ridiculously low, zero work life balance and leaders in SMB are a joke - so much politics and death by spreadsheet. VPs and managers wouldnt last a day in the real world. R(ott) in Peace. Can't wait to resign.

Happy, congenial work environment. Smart consultants doing good work.

Cons

Clock watchers, light accountability across all levels, weak leadership, new head of consulting business does not attend meetings in person despite being in the same building, instead he appears on video to deliver sermon like speeches, top down management style from senior leaders, highly disorganized, reactive environment where everyone is scrambling.
