Typical Big 4
Pros: - Pay - Brand Recognition - Client scale and quality
Cons: - Red tape and bureaucracy - Severely lacking technologist and ability to train/up skill an army of generalist - Audit and tax roots are significant blockers/constraints for technology, innovation, and market agility - Terrible tech stack and preference to use custom/propitiatory tools when engaging with clients (coupled with the bureaucracy makes it very frustrating to execute on project work) - Like any big 4 a lot of the job is politics/optics and "showing value" instead of focusing on understanding client needs and delivering real results
