Business outlook
Pros
It used to be the people but most of the good people have moved on as the firm focuses its attention on chasing the Big 4 and maximizing earnings per share for the partners. Interesting projects and clients.
Cons
Don't be fooled by the window dressing of the "Culture Journey" at Grant Thornton. The partners "talk the talk" but don't "walk the walk". Like most professional service firms, billable hours and sales are all that count - understandable - but Grant Thornton used to care about its people too. Now it is all about "enhancing the partner's wealth", which they accomplish by paying less than market, poor benefits, and zero to "joke" bonuses to employees.
