Pros

Good culture and good people, fantastic work life balance and WFH possibilities

Cons

Lots of restructures (two in the two years I was there), little opportunity to progress, unsupportive management, very little work won and so a lot of employees sitting around doing not a lot. Extremely poor pay, standard for consulting really though

Great work-life balance, especially if you’re a hard worker and employer can see that.

Colleague competition, which tends to happen at larger firms
