Pros
- Projects are very diverse - Great exposure opportunities for certain disciplines - Super friendly colleagues, mostly helpful - New office with a great view - A few really supportive partners in high management level - Committed to job safety - Great place to learn about dealing with pressure and multitasking
Cons
- Staggering workload, everyone is too busy putting out their fires - A lot of partners, only a few are supportive - Promotion from middle to senior within the office is almost unheard of - Unrealistic hourly charge rate and billable hour targets - Growth mindset (in sales, not in people) to an extreme - Aggressive to make project sales, often sacrificing quality of deliverables - Unrecognized and under-appreciated from management - Open office with limited space - IT can use a lot more resources - Gradually cutting benefits - Disappointing annual performance bonus - Perfect place for a burnout
