Pros

- Friendly coworkers - Out of Big 4, they seem to care about work life balance more - Good hours (in Risk Consulting) - Great benefits (25 days PTO, 401k matching) - Good training (especially for data programs if you take advantage)

Cons

- You are just a number. They will put you where they need you, irrespective of your skills and interests. - Partners become protective of resources - Utilization is #1 metric of your worth - Salary increases dependent on firm's performance, better to increase your base by going elsewhere then boomeranging back

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
