Pros

I'm provided with opportunities to grow as well as to assist in other roles that I am passionate about. We have a strong social planning committee, community service branch, LGBTQIA/Pride alliance, Multi-cultural organization, etc. In addition, I've gotten the chance to assist with recruiting events and office tours. There are lots of ways to be involved and feel connected beyond my primary job responsibilities and these efforts are often encouraged and rewarded.

Cons

It's still public accounting. Busy season is never easy and part of your performance is being evaluated on your billable hours.

Pros

Consultants were not overworked, and people are generally staying in their own lane. Strong knowlegeable teammates and lots of internal resources to grow. Work life balance was good.

Cons

I left during a time of transition, since the top practice director retired and the EBA leader took over as interim leader. This interim guy seemed to be waiting for something to take any action with current resources, and he was not too interested in rallying or figuring things out as a team. If he had expectations, they were never communicated to me. The lack of clarity was very challenging for me personally, and it came off as a lack of support. I think others in the team probably feel similarly.
