Pros

GT as a whole has a great culture.. but each office/service line has its own which can vary drastically. Flex time off benefit is amazing. Some projects are very cool. The company's smaller size and constant change opens the door for young employees to make an impact.

Cons

The constant change & smaller size also has cons - things are simply not as organized and well setup as other top professional firms. There are certain office cultures (Bellevue) that are toxic. The company does a poor job at removing terrible managers which as a result pushes away great talent. Note - all of this is service line specific.

Pros

Some folks are great to work with. Some of the leaders really do care.

Cons

Workday practice is a total mess. They have trouble selling work and hours are much lower than they should be so consultants end up spread very thin across multiple projects and still can't hit utilization targets on paper even if they are working very hard in actuality. The independence requirements are insane!! If I had known I would have to disclose all of my investments and be told wha t I am or am not allowed to invest money in I would not have taken the job. Independence is total hell and most consulting firms don't subject employees to those invasive requirements.
