Pros

Good people and generally a nicer culture than other global accountancy firms. Good office and facilities at London Head Office on Baker Street.

Cons

Support functions seem to get the rough end of the stick with constant restructures. Complex IT systems and poor CRM - overhaul and investment needed.

Pros

Fantastic benefits and lots of time off...if you can take it. 28 days PTO and the firm is closed from Christmas to New Years. How happy you are here will depend on your small group and if you like the people.

Cons

Moving to an open concept work environment with no cube walls and no offices. Work spaces are essentially "hotel" counters with 2 monitors and a phone. Employees have a locker to keep personal items and a few files. Company is paperless, which is very rough sometimes. If your small group works from home a lot that can be ok, but if you have to work in the office, its a bear.
