Pros

Some great people / partners but if you are not aligned directly with them life can get hard real fast. Positive diversity

Cons

Senior leadership in cyber micro manage all the way down to personally approving small business expenditures, while the whole consulting division is struggling. MV creates a toxic environment from the top down and we have lost (through layoffs and attrition) so many good people those of us who are left are struggling to fill the void

Pros

It might sound cliche but the Pro for me is the people that I work with. I'm lucky enough to be staffed in a team with great leadership. Managers are actually willing to coach junior members and be a real mentor. I very much appreciate their efforts.

Cons

Long hours and office politics. This is pretty basic and obvious for any public accounting firms. Every time a quarter end, year end, or a special filing is going out, you can expect 10-14 hour days. It might be fine in your early career but it gets really tiring after a few years.
