Pros

Good opportunity to learn a lot

Cons

Long working hours you never get back and whats worse is they're expected from staff. Benefits are no more than bike scheme and tax saver etc. Salary is less than industry standard. Floors are crammed with staff desks. Flexibility is non existent.

Pros

Consultants were not overworked, and people are generally staying in their own lane. Strong knowlegeable teammates and lots of internal resources to grow. Work life balance was good.

Cons

I left during a time of transition, since the top practice director retired and the EBA leader took over as interim leader. This interim guy seemed to be waiting for something to take any action with current resources, and he was not too interested in rallying or figuring things out as a team. If he had expectations, they were never communicated to me. The lack of clarity was very challenging for me personally, and it came off as a lack of support. I think others in the team probably feel similarly.
