Things chnaged
Pros: * Great Upper Level Leadership. Good on the floor presence 
* Open Door Policy. You can walk up to any Senior person on the floor. No calling anyone sir
* Good Flexibility if you're in the right project
* Has a good communication gym and physical gym
* Great people all around in general. Didn't find too much of politics here
* Year long office events keeping the workplace active (as long as your project allows you to have time to participate)
* Most projects have a budget for team outings and parties and its a great way to boost morale and have fun
* If you're an extrovert and are good at networking, you can easily grow in the firm
* Office infrastructure is good
* Pre-covid had a decent pay hike and normalization does happen over time 
* Currently opened a mobile reimbursement policy for reimbursing 25k on select mobile phones
* Good Training programs have started in the last 1-2 years. They are getting employees trained in multple fronts
* Free Udemy access and other training portals
Cons: * Evaluation for hikes/bonuses happens for Mar-Mar. But is rewarded only by August-September forcing employees to wait for 6 months for the work they have already done. Seems like a cheap attempt to prevent people from leaving
* Work Life Balance has not been good once Covid hit because of bad planning from upper management. Pre-covid it all depended on the project and your luck. Some had it bad but in general it was ok. Post Covid most projects had bad work life balance 
* If you aren't an extrovert, growing and getting opportunities is difficult in the organization. The company is built on the one word - networking and it is critical for you to grow. 
* The down side of networking is that if you do a good job, you will never be released from a long term project even if requested for. It is hard to get other opportunities. 
* If you are a Senior Consultant and above you are expected to do a lot of extra activities (Firm Activities). This is over and above any project work. If you don't this directly impacts your year end badly. Until last year it used to be for all employees. 
* Didn't treat employees fairly during Covid times. Many people were asked to resign and other good performers were put into PIP because of utilization and Firm Initiatives and not lack of performance in their client work
