Pros

Company definitely has ethics and doesn't bend backwords for getting business. Unlike some other consulting firm they don't wine & dine their clients just to get business. Wiil not take on projects that they believe they can deliver on time & budget. Great benefits (PTO, Health Ins, 401(k) (Regular matching as well as profit sharing into 401(k) account). Infact one of the best I have seen in the industry. Co-workers and VPs (ex E&Y partners) are great and always willing to guide you along.

Cons

E&Y Consulting was sold to Cap Gemini in 2000 to make a new entity, Cap Gemini E Y and then finally Capgemini US LLC. Initially the culture and environment was great as it carried forward the E&Y culture and focus. However over the years as prior E&Y partners left, the culture started changing. Focus shifted from employees to share holders and reducing expenses. There has been more focus on offshoring work and not building up the individual practices in US. Hardly any bench strenght. Focus on training has also diminished. These were my obeservation 3yrs back before I left. I hope they have refinded their focus and vision to take it back to being a great firm it was when I joined.

Pros

Pretty flexible. It's cool if you get on a project with a good client, because honestly you will become like a low-class employee at that company who they all dont care about and expect you not to be around very long so if you can deal with that then you can try and have a good time with them.

Cons

Honestly can't believe the audacity and entitlement of the middle management at this place. For example, last year everybody got about 3% merit raises (not at all keeping up with inflation but still something). This year, they were working with the same pool of funds to work with for raises, but made a "business decision" to consolidate the raises to only management. The rest of us got nothing. And the TOLD us they kept everything for themselves. And in addition to that, they twisted the knife by COMPLAINING to the whole department on a department call that their bonuses weren't enough. Just tone-deaf and careless mostly.
