Pros
Great work-life balance except during busy season, which is expected in this industry.
Kontras
Benefits are pricey. There is also little to no training involved. They pride themselves in having a mentorship program, but the manager or partner they pair you with is usually too busy to take questions. The office atmosphere is like a scene from Mean Girls in that if you don’t work in a certain department, they have a “you can’t sit with us” attitude. I’ve never witnessed a workplace so divisive and clique-y, and the partners are the worst culprits. Overall, the firm is more concerned with who puts in the most hours. They preach productivity, but if you work the long hours yet are all caught up on your projects halfway through the day, then your productivity tanks, which you then get reprimanded for.
