Vantaggi

- Team (staff level) can be quite fun to work with as we joke about our work, bosses, and clients - Very modern way to unlock office using fingerprint (which is sort of unhygienic when Covid hit) - You get exposure to different types of work, clients, and industry

Svantaggi

- We get blamed for everything we do, even on the grammar we use on our emails (makes pressing the "Send" button on emails mentally tiring). Our English often gets criticised, saying is hard to understand and we need to improve on it but generally most people can understand (fact: I have been using the same English standard for the past 3 years without any issue). - Superiors are not that helpful. They say we can ask questions if need any clarification but always end up wasting time having long winded discussions in meetings and ending without conclusions. - Having lots of workload that are different in nature ongoing concurrently. In addition, you might also get dragged into organising "team engagement" stuff that takes up even more time that you don't have much of (P.S. you would still get blamed if superiors find it no fun). - Every day at work is just thinking of how to avoid getting blamed instead of actually doing the work properly. - You still need to do admin stuff like raising invoice to clients (which is a very tedious process).

Vantaggi

Consultants were not overworked, and people are generally staying in their own lane. Strong knowlegeable teammates and lots of internal resources to grow. Work life balance was good.

Svantaggi

I left during a time of transition, since the top practice director retired and the EBA leader took over as interim leader. This interim guy seemed to be waiting for something to take any action with current resources, and he was not too interested in rallying or figuring things out as a team. If he had expectations, they were never communicated to me. The lack of clarity was very challenging for me personally, and it came off as a lack of support. I think others in the team probably feel similarly.
