Worst job I have ever had that almost ruined my life

Senior consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Decent money - On-boarding was fun but that's where the fun ends

Cons

- 80% Travel which means 4/5 business days, out of state, every week until the end of time - Directors don't care about personal well-being or job growth - No choice on projects for new hires and duration - No way to network once you get assigned to a project - They say they care about work-life balance but that is such a joke. There is no such thing. - Non-technical managers/directors running technical projects. Statements like "I'm not technical but..." run rampant and they have no idea what they are doing - Difficult to switch projects especially if you are on a small time - Outside certifications is limited and occurs only after being there for a year - There is no PwC culture

Manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Flexibility of working from home - Good perks - Decent salary

Cons

- No proper training is provided. - If you are looking for career growth, no one is there to help you. You have to look for opportunities. - So competitive that no one works as a team but to compete with one another. - No respect for IFS staff or jobs and responsibilities. - No one is ready to take ownership of their work. - No one is there to help out one another to work as a team. - Power struggles amongst people. - Way too short staffed. Each person is putting in worth two people's jobs. - Too big for procedures to be followed universally. - Wheels are always re-invented.
