Pros

Great company with opportunity to grow and advance career. Culture was great and felt like a smaller firm at the headquarters but slowly becoming more corporate.

Cons

Tends to be reactive to current market with respect to pay. Receptive and willing to accommodate requests for higher annual increases but won’t get anything you don’t ask for and push for hard. Also need to have the right people go to bat for you for promotions and raises which can make it much easier or harder. I think this may be the case for most consulting firms though.

Pros

Flexible schedule & ability to work remote or hybrid

Cons

The company does not communicate effectively among all staff. Upper management treats as-needed staff like they are trash and they don't take time to understand the discipline that they are in charge of. When the department is understaffed, the employees are told to just "work harder" instead of hiring more people. They interview people, make them believe they have a shot, then the managers ghosts them. Even though they label themselves as having "competitive" salaries, they pay less than some smaller companies. Large bonuses only go to managers after their staff does all the hard work. Regular staff gets small bonuses and baby raises each year. A lot of people resign after they refuse to do bigger raises because they can get hired for a lot more at other companies. Upper management also ignores all communication from regular staff. There are no repercussions to Upper management when there are HR complaints about them. Advancement in the company is super slow.
