Pros

Pay better than the big 4

Cons

1. Suddenly the leadership thought that they want to improve profitability so to cut costs, they have started firing teams and put employees on PIP. This is based on feedback like can improve presentation skills and being proactive which is applicable to everyone. Shaming you to believe that you didn't perform well whereas promotions are given based on how clean you can lick and extra curricular activities done and not actual work. 2. Learning is limited as there is no variety in projects and they will take you on projects that you have already done. 3. The projects here are mostly recurring reports and few strategy projects which are almost 70-80% and 30-40% resources are under utilized and then you are penalized for their inability to staff you on projects. 4. Tech skills - People are hired from top IITs to copy paste and run SQL queries. And people from top IIMs are hired to do subpar marketing reports which are part of bundled services. So mostly you become the frog in the well. 5. Sponsoring big events like World Cup and other events just to increase brand awareness. So priorities are not set right

Pros

Private health insurance. Nice office

Cons

P&C have been one of the most toxic teams I've ever worked with. The leadership is delusional and lacks basic social skills. Communication is poor and there is zero transparency. Nepotism and favoritism is a standard practice. People are quietly fired and replaced with friends of the leadership. You could experience bullying and harassment every day. Middle managers use inappropriate language all the time and belittle their reports. Avoid!
