Not all teams are equal, pick wisely
Pros: - Met very good people whom I consider good friends
- Exposure to global clients
- Firm has respectable reputation in general
- Some senior partners are very down-to-earth and are very decent people, and always willing to help
Cons: - Audit DNA
- A lot of politics, especially during performance appraisals (it's not about your work or your performance, it's about how well-regarded your manager is and/or how eloquent your manager is)
- Some partners take care of "their own people", which will affect the kinds of projects available to you and your performance rating
- Real issues, even when escalated, are not investigated, especially if it concerns those partners' "people"
- Salary is abysmal (until almost Manager grade)
