So near, but so far... reality versus spin
Pros: - a relatively strong brand
- significant focus on diversity & inclusion
- starting to recognise the importance of social responsibility (behind the rest of the market)
- significant growth in internally reported revenues
- some really good people
Cons: - significant level of mistrust across the leadership, which feeds anxiety below
- passive aggressive management style
- very hierarchical and partner-led
- focus on positive narrative, not long term success, if it directly challenges what we do today
- chaotic organisation and administratively cumbersome
- predominantly an audit firm, which increasingly tries to contain Advisory
- people from Deloitte and PwC don't tend to enjoy the experience
