Experience level: Junior

Firm in transition
Pros: Lowest politics and egos of Big 4.  Having worked for others, this firm is very focused on getting work done, and serving clients.  High degree of risk management approach to almost all delivery, even to the point of missing opportunity that other firms would take.  (for Advisory work)  There's a lot of room for "new talent" to prove and make their mark (vs other firms where you might have to stand in line for opportunity)
Cons: Not elite.  Needs a talent upgrade in several areas.  High degree of audit driven leadership, which is a struggle in Advisory work.  This is a small consulting firm trying to play on a big stage.  A lot of growing pains, and migrating to metrics and behavior that do not always align to growth.  Legal, contracting and risk management are almost draconian.    Growing in spite of itself, or due to super-human effort.  Turnover seems to be on the uptick.  Perhaps a normal outcome of growth, but difficult to find bench strength.
