Will definitely take you both up on that - thank you!!

Which office/position?

Building off what ZS2 said, my experience has been compared to another Big4 firm I worked for, everyone here is much more “academic”. By this I mean you get a lot of people coming out of masters/ PHD programs, and a lot less business school/ cookie cutter consultant type. This leads to a more diverse background of folks, which I enjoy personally.

Also, the firms motto is “do the right thing. Treat people right. Get it right.”

I was never one to drink the koolaid of any firm. However, It would unfair if I didn’t acknowledge that ZS leadership has exemplified these values for at least the last 18 months. I’d work here for the work life balance (&pay) alone, but that culture that leadership has created has def been a nice added benefit.

Good luck on the interview!
