As a big4 firm, it’s a great brand name and exposure ; but that’s where it ends.
Pros: Brand name, exposure to sectors and clients; networked organisation; systems and processes
Cons: - bureaucratic procedures 
- teams don’t collaborate within the same practice 
- very poorly paid, overworked employees in spite of good revenues 
- almost a bonded labour culture, where anyone getting opportunity outside of the firm is harassed while leaving with vendetta for leaving this bondage 
- lack of technical and innovative solutions to work upon, just run of the mill projects 
- lack of knowledge being made up for with jargons and flashy ppts
- short term, top line focused leadership with focus on revenues. Not in talent, not on client delight either. In fact, once projects are won, nobody cares about deliverables and the project is left to the junior most employees who have no experience, receive no guidance and no training in subject matter 
- typical working day 9.30am to 12midnight; 3/4 weekends working too 
- lacks transparency towards employees 
-  very similar to all big4/ BBM firm culture, some are just worse than others
