Pros

There is work life balance for non client facing teams. Colleagues are good.

Cons

Salary hikes and promotions are honestly a joke. It feels like only people who are in the managers’ good books get promoted. There’s barely any real growth — if you’re good at your job, they’ll just keep you stuck in the same role instead of rewarding you. The attrition rate is very high, and even when people leave, there’s no proper planning or hiring, which just puts more pressure on the remaining team. Management in my team (especially at manager and director level) is quite poor, with clear favoritism and bias, sometimes even towards people from the same region

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.
