Pros

1. High impact work leading to repeat businesses 2. Amazing group of partners and engagement managers - really masters of their game 3. Meritocracy based culture - people are invested in your growth unlike throwing you into an ocean hoping you could swim ashore

Cons

1. Need to be cut out for consulting - most employees are passenger vehicles in an industry that demands 12 hours per day everyday 2. Pay is definitely not at par especially at the manager and above levels with other tier 1 consulting firms in India

Pros

Strong culture and collaborative environment with smart, supportive colleagues. Admins are trusted partners and get exposure to senior leadership, which provides great learning opportunities. Compensation and benefits are competitive compared to similar roles.

Cons

Workload can be high, with admins often supporting multiple stakeholders while also providing backup coverage. Expectations can vary widely depending on the team, which can create inconsistency and pressure. Career growth paths are less structured and require a lot of self-direction. Work-life balance can be challenging at times, especially across time zones.
