Stereotypical big 4 company, with a slight lean toward employee satisfaction
Pros: - Decent money
- Good opportunities if you're a business major and love networking
- Senior Partners/Principals do seem to listen a bit, but most everyone in the middle is failing upwards (good talent leaves)
- Way better peers than any of the other big 4. Deloitte is snotty, PwC employees are overworked and arrogant, and KPMG is well...oft forgotten.
Cons: - Unable to hire any good tech talent as it is all elsewhere working fewer hours for better total comp
- Acquisition team is out of touch and tone deaf
-  Company as a whole is stuck in the past, saying one thing, and doing another, and when they try to catch up to the future they do so only because it benefits their bottom line (see also their "unlimited" vacation policy)
- Senior Managers / Partners on projects are often inflexible and use overworking their project staff as a means to save themselves on margins, even though company policy states you must log all your hours you are almost always told to just log a flat number.
- Processes are out of control in scale and scope. Get ready to submit lots of TPS reports, especially as you move up.
