Big4 beware!
Pros: They kept up to date with their technology. Using it was a different case.
Cons: HR staff have zero ability to progress within the firm unless their known to someone or a “favourite”.  Favouritism was HUGE at the company especially within HR. Positions would open up and associates would be asked to apply and management would well knowing already have selected a candidate that they wanted aka their favourite in that role. The manager was an embarrassment to work for completely clueless and couldn’t hold a conversation during calls would let the Team lead do all the talking, not sure who was the real manager.  Hours and work life balance don’t exist.  Your told not to do OT but given SLA’s that make it impossible not to.  When your hired they hire you for one role and within a month tell you you’ll cover two roles as a “backup/minor” for the same pay.  They tolerate and keep incompetent team members on the team even though they don’t pull their weight and management knows this.  Their annual performance review is a JOKE- they openly say new associates are a rating 3 no matter how above and beyond they’ve gone. Yet when it comes time to payouts they pick and chose who gets a bonus and who doesn’t even though your all the same rating and when you tell them for almost a year about your goals etc and what you need they just do nothing about it. The “coach meetings” are a waste of time because there’s no real coaching going on. The coach will just write down the same thing for 5 months straight, take no action and when you get frustrated and leave become “shocked” that you weren’t happy with the underpaying job and no career progression.   SUCH A JOKE!!!
