Pros

-Variety of projects you can work on corresponding to different frameworks (ISO 27001, SOC 1/2, PCI, Hitrust, Fedramp) -Shorter client engagements (2-3 weeks) which allows more exposure to multiple clients -Higher compensation than other public accounting firms

Cons

-Shorter engagements means less time to complete a project. Expect delays from clients as that is the nature of audit. Since project time is very short, any delay from the client can lead to multiple projects piling up causing a domino effect.

Pros

Management frequently improves benefits. Management really knows the business well. The company has historically been well insulated from economic downturns. So many opportunities to stand out and make a name for yourself

Cons

Data driven decisions still a work in progress. Long term vision is likely 1 ish year.

Pros

The people. Peers are great to work with and very supportive. Some of the leaders in the teams are as well. Perks were GREAT but have slowly been taken away or the costs went up.

Cons

Where do I begin? Wholesale executive turnover. Technology projects that we're supposed to say are awesome but aren't really that great. They take up more time to figure out than they're worth and we know those are meant to take our jobs. AI, offshore, temp labor. No thanks. It was a place I loved working at but has slowly just become a job that makes me feel like I should be watching for somewhere else to go. Just in case. The culture has changed quite a bit too. It used to feel like a place where we all wanted to work together but that's slowly fading.
