Boutique firm managed like a multinational corporation where 'people are the biggest cost item in the business'

Pros
Niche focus on professional service firms. Great clients. Instant client exposure because it's a boutique firm. Intellectually stimulating work.
Cons
Boutique firm means you are doing above and beyond the norm without appropriate recognition. No clarity on career trajectory. Performance reviews are tools used by management to assert some control on your growth in title and salary (would also put this down to poor expectation management). Surprisingly high staff churn rate for a boutique firm. All ex-employees (who have left on good or not so good terms) were classified as "not good enough" or "didn't make the cut". Profit focus environment at the detriment of culture.

Pros
Variety of clients, work types, principals with who I work. Intellectual challenges every day. New tasks to do with autonomy.
Cons
Not enough training on the job. Every job should have clear aims for staff learning and feedback. Narrow niche limits career opportunities.
