Pros

There are none - it was an overall negative experience

Cons

People are very disingenuous. Company touts itself as flexible and flat-structured with wide ranging opportunities - this is all false. You will be expected to work regular overtime without compensations. Penchant for micromanaging. Complete lack of basic support or onboarding. No feedback or explanations ever. People are rude and mean under the guise of being jobsworths.

Pros

Chance to work with some genuinely skilled people and with the right manager you will be empowered to develop if you can prove your worth. Some strong clients that present valuable opportunities to learn. Trusted to work autonomously without someone looking over your shoulder or forcing you to formally clock in and out – if you can deliver results and make clients happy you will be trusted to do it the way that works for you.

Cons

Subject to habitual layoffs that are a constant setback for morale and have seen something of a culture vacuum develop in the company. Lost senior colleagues either as a result of cuts, or indirectly because they chose to move elsewhere due to uncertain environment. Poor project management setup with a lack of formal structure can leave consultants burned out and without a support system. Lack of safeguards in place to ensure quality control and second opinions in projects before they are delivered (obsession with maximising margins has eroded good habits).
