Pros

- opportunity to work on many complex clients - develop project management and leadership skills very quickly if you put in the time and effort to invest in yourself

Cons

- incredibly toxic work culture that permeates from the top down - senior managers who go behind your back and throw you under the bus with partners to disguise their own incompetence - if you’re in audit, they will sell you the opportunity to do rotations in other groups, but in reality the highly sought after advisory roles are extremely competitive and managers have no problem clawing you back on their audit files during your rotation - there have been at least four emergency meetings over the past six months to discuss retention and ways to improve the culture, with no real or concrete pathway for achieving this - this speaks to how toxic the culture is and perhaps an overhaul of the manager group is warranted

Pros

Competitive salary for short term gains.

Cons

Unqualified managers with little to no technical experience. Lots of fluffy words are thrown around with no meaning. No and I mean absolutely no belief or value associated to building culture. Politics are worse than at the capital. Emails are used as daggers and your colleagues are dog eat dog where competition to scale the ladder is fierce and less experienced managers will take the bait to promote those who are skilled at throwing others under the bus.
