Pros

Work from home, competitive pay for some roles, great teams to work with (not most partners).

Cons

CB has shifted drastically since the PE began calling the shots around here. Multiple rounds of layoffs, constant pressure about numbers/hours, and fear tactics from firm leadership are destroying the culture of this firm. Offshoring all staff work to India and eliminating an entire generation of future tax leaders in the US in the process. Poor hiring tactics, most teams are understaffed, and partners are very demanding since they are only answering to the PE.
