Pros

NEW COFFEE MACHINE ME GUSTA! No seriously that's prob the only good thing you can get.

Cons

-long hours - never once properly compensated for this during my 4years tenure here. $5 dinner + Cab fare and can only be used sparingly. Stingy as if you ask me. -poor staff benefits - speechless, even other SMEs are coming up with a more family oriented kind of scheme, this firm 's midset is still in the 19th century way where you slave to your grave but as long as the company survives nothing else matters. Well, technically leave one wolf alive and the pack survives right? -overall poor communication flows -treated like crap -management: egoistic, elitist, arrogant, dictators. not helpful, discouraging, 0 care given, don't have the ability to empathize, unmotivating, living in their own Marxist world most of the time, doesn't get off their high horse (maybe due to their size and appearance)

Pros

Some good people here, but there are everyone and quite honestly they didn't stack up to the Big 4 or boutique consulting firms I have worked for in the past. As with most big firms, there are opportunities to learn and network.

Cons

Short-term view of the world. As with most firms, they'll do everything to protect/benefit the partnership at all costs - if you're not one then you're on the chopping block at all times. They are bleeding cash due to horrendous audit revenues this year. Do a search for "Deepwater Horizon & McGladrey" - maybe clients are waking up. They are not a Big firm - they are an amalgamation of lots of little firms and their horrendous internal systems and processes show that. They constantly pay less than market rates - they reneged on a promised bonus for me and low-balled every person I hired for my team. Finally, their medical plan is just awful.

Pros

Learning opportunity and providing you with a job

Cons

It is funny to know that the first thing when joining the firm that they teach you is that the client is your paymaster. Unfortunately everything they do says that too. Employees are nothing to the firm and can be seen from the crappy remuneration packages which is laughable. Tin of plain Kong guan biscuit for employee while packet drinks in fridge are for clients. Flexi attire strictly for Friday cause traditional management don't want client to see staff in "informal attires". Management explain we cant have microwave because client can smell our food hence we look unprofessional. When employees want to leave, they will find all ways physically and emotionally to refrain you from doing so. Who are we retaining client or employees. Everything the company does proves that they do not care about you nor your growth. It is also funny to see that they have rolled out a retention strategy called the "grow program" that does not involve increasing remuneration at all. All it does it teach you some online course soft-skill to listen to your client make them happy and help the firm make more money again. The current economy will bring out more ugly in the firm as seen.
