Pros

- if you couldn’t get into Tier 1 this is a place from which you can lateral higher if you are a good performer - some senior people in the firm are very good and supportive, but not most - money is competitive especially for not being tier 1 - office location was spectacular at the MCA in Circular Quay

Cons

Very clearly not Tier 1 and an insecure book. Work life balance is attorcious, and consultant support and enablement is a joke compared to Tier 1. Life can be wildly different depending my nom the projects you get and high performers are burnt through to get as much out of before they leave instead of nourished. Seniors have no genuine buy in or investment into the firm’s long term health over maximising their distributions (can only speak to ANZ unit, heard it’s different in USA).

Pros

- AMAZING people, I loved the junior team - You learn a lot, there are great opportunities within the projects to talk to clients and understand how consulting works

Cons

- Since the office is small, you have to be liked by the senior team in order to be considered for promotions, it's not just merit based - The projects are kind of always with the same clients, so once you get staffed in a certain kind of project you'll always be in the same industry since the team is smaller
