Pros
The people you work with are the reason to stay at Grant Thornton. You will get experience in areas that larger firms don't provide as early on. Partners are very approachable and are involved in client matters.
Cons
Firm Performance has been poor over the past few years, but is not communicated until very late in the year and compensation is ultimately affected. People who should be getting promoted at all levels of the firm are unable to because of these financial struggles. Very poor transparency of management and the partners on general firm strategy, growth, financial performance, and talent reviews. Culture has gone down hill as the firm shifts from a people first strategy to a growth and brand first strategy. Outside hires have a better chance of making it at Grant Thornton than campus hires because at least they are paid market rate for their work and can endure the minimal raises year over year with a higher salary than the rest of us who've stuck it out.
