Pros
Mostly a lovely firm. Mainly nice people and a supportive culture with friendly and varied clients.
Cons
PEM was a great place to work until a few people from other firms joined. They have deliberately caused trouble by making complaints about the culture ,supported by one partner particularly. There is lots of stuff below about ladishness but I don’t know what you can expect when you employ lots of lads. It is not something that I have ever found to be an issue. Before Xmas 2022 the whole audit team was treated to a lecture by the managing partner and another. This was patronising and overblown and because of ‘confidential’ complaints that a few people made and then told everyone about. SOOOO hypocritical when the most sexiest post ever seen was sent around on LinkedIn by the marketing team. The partners talk about culture but they set that and a lot of them are never even there. One of them picks up his kids every day at 3.00pm and the managing partner is the most absent person in history. The staff refer to him as a ghost. One partner acts like a headmistress and treats everyone like kids and is not respected.
