KPMG: Partnership of Favoritism
Pros: Many interesting and genuine colleagues provide guidance and assistance.
Cons: Highly political and little job security. Often people are promoted on the strength of their ability to network with the right partner or higher echelon director and with little regard to their talent or credentials. If you do not have a partner protector you are in dangerous waters. I was part of a group that was let go because one notorious partner wanted to get rid of one employee so to cover his tracks he let go of the entire group of 20.
