Pros
Pay and benefits are comparable to larger firms Flex time is possible Baker Tilly's international reach is helpful as a resource and opportunity Advisory/consulting practice is strong
Cons
Still suffering "growing pains" from absorbing smaller firms; managers tend to cluster with the colleagues from their old firms and not reach out to build relationships Timely, specific and actionable feedback is hard to get -- too many managers depend on the annual review process for virtually all feedback Awkward size of office -- too big to foster real collegiality, but not big enough to have multiple staffers working on similar engagements. If you are assigned a senior or manager who is helpful, then you'll be OK, but if you aren't, then you really have no one else to go to for help.
