Pros

Grant Thornton is extremely flexible with work hours and arrangements, they are very excited about women working for their organization and try to do what they can to promote women in the organization, and have an extremely open door policy about discussing matters with partners.

Cons

Sometimes the work isn't what will give you longterm career growth, the name does not hold well in the market place so there is little brand awareness to Grant Thornton, and promotion process is not fair.

Pros

Some folks are great to work with. Some of the leaders really do care.

Cons

Workday practice is a total mess. They have trouble selling work and hours are much lower than they should be so consultants end up spread very thin across multiple projects and still can't hit utilization targets on paper even if they are working very hard in actuality. The independence requirements are insane!! If I had known I would have to disclose all of my investments and be told wha t I am or am not allowed to invest money in I would not have taken the job. Independence is total hell and most consulting firms don't subject employees to those invasive requirements.
