Pros
- if you are in the good books of your manager, are able to successfully brown-nose your way through, or are on a decent team run by decent managers, TAG can be a decent place to work
Cons
- this place is no different from your average consultancy without being anywhere close to the pay and structured promotion or exit options - expectations of performance are NOT made clear to new hires leading to lots of junior staff attrition - there is blatant favouritism and preferential treatment based on arbitrary factors, not merit or hard work. There are cases of nepotism as well. Overall, brown-nosing is essential to succeed at TAG, in fact it is a must - depending on the team you're on. - Unless you are a total geopolitics nerd, life at TAG will get boring quickly, Even then most of your work are typical consulting assignments with little to no analytical rigor or substance. - I personally had a terrible experience at TAG and would only advise working here if you are left without other options
