Pros

Good talent pool, collegial atmosphers

Cons

Management full of people who joined the firm early enough and rose with the tide. partners dont sell work and push it down to managers and consultants, this creates a conflict of interest. Managers and consultants who need to be jjust concerned about delivery of results, try to oversell thereby impacting quality of results also they are unethical in billing clients. I was billed twice in the same duration to the same client. when client objected, they claimed that i was working extra time on my own accord and hence I was billed 60hrs/wk also multi project staffing means you are never able to learn or do any one thing correctly

Pros

Strong culture and collaborative environment with smart, supportive colleagues. Admins are trusted partners and get exposure to senior leadership, which provides great learning opportunities. Compensation and benefits are competitive compared to similar roles.

Cons

Workload can be high, with admins often supporting multiple stakeholders while also providing backup coverage. Expectations can vary widely depending on the team, which can create inconsistency and pressure. Career growth paths are less structured and require a lot of self-direction. Work-life balance can be challenging at times, especially across time zones.
