Used to be great.....
Pros: If you are doing well (performance at lower grades, sales at higher grades) you tend to be left to your own devices to manage your career.

Quality of people, generally better than the other top 4 firms.

You are not automatically pigeon holed. There is an ability to shift competences and even service lines if you have the will
Cons: The culture has changed significantly over the past few years, mainly due to a change in leadership. It's all about sales and margin now. Whilst this was always the most important factor in this or any other professional services firm, it is to the compete detriment of everything else now.

Pay bands are very narrow, unless you are a Partner.

Partners quite simply take too much out of the business, probably double what is taken by other big 4 partners. This has an obvious impact on pay.

Social events and training events are now non existent

Morale is currently low. It feels churn and burn is now the buzzword.
