Pros

Friendly environment and growth-oriented - office dependent. You will learn a lot and be exposed to all industries, which is great. If you are new, they will treat you with respect and try to help you learn; they understand it's a lot.

Cons

Like most companies, they want you to meet your billable hours, which is good. However, the negative here is if the company typically performs worse in the summer or the work starts to slow down for any reason, or you have too many staff competing for work, your billables begin to be negatively affected, which is faulted towards the employees ' performance. You need 150 billable hours a month, regardless of vacation and PTO. Nonbillable hours will not save you from the end goal, which is again, billable hours. Meaning, if you have a meeting, a federal holiday, or an office closure which is non-billable, you will have to make that time up. It's the hard law in this firm.

Great team and seems like there’s good work-life balance.

Pros

Can't think of anything that's amazing here anymore.

Cons

Toxic place to work. Unrealistic goals, lack of training, inflated egos, and a non-diverse environment define the day-to-day. The focus is solely on revenue, while leadership continues to overlook the poor culture and low morale among employees. There is little investment in professional development or meaningful feedback, and employee concerns are routinely dismissed. Without accountability or a commitment to change, retention and team performance will continue to suffer.
