Pros

Good place to gain experience and exposure. The local office hosts a variety of events and activities to meet people and build connections. There's some nice benefits like tuition reinbursement and 401k matching.

Cons

Layoff was abrupt and handled poorly, with unclear expectations and limited communication from my direct manager throughout the process. Management quality varied significantly, so your overall experience depends heavily on the manager and team you're with. Leadership always seems disconnected from day-to-day operations, while still making decisions that affected them. Team morale and culture have been declining since acquisition.

Pros

Friendly environment and growth-oriented - office dependent. You will learn a lot and be exposed to all industries, which is great. If you are new, they will treat you with respect and try to help you learn; they understand it's a lot.

Cons

Like most companies, they want you to meet your billable hours, which is good. However, the negative here is if the company typically performs worse in the summer or the work starts to slow down for any reason, or you have too many staff competing for work, your billables begin to be negatively affected, which is faulted towards the employees ' performance. You need 150 billable hours a month, regardless of vacation and PTO. Nonbillable hours will not save you from the end goal, which is again, billable hours. Meaning, if you have a meeting, a federal holiday, or an office closure which is non-billable, you will have to make that time up. It's the hard law in this firm.
