Pros
People are just the best you can find in the industry. Extremely talented, clever and genuinely helpful, it's a shame the company does not value them enough. However, I've learnt a lot from my colleagues.
Cons
It's tough to stay motivated when we're getting nothing back. Three years in a row with no pay raise, and a pitiful 3% bonus, while the firm flaunts record-breaking profits and partners are making the news with highest salaries ever. It's clear they don't value us, their most important asset. You work 40-50 hours a week on the edge of burnout with zero rewards or recognition, and there is so much pressure to stay on the go non-stop. There is no downtime between engagements, no time to train, and promotions have been on ice for years. Honestly, it's just a shame.
