It's a glorified call-center advertising itself as a sort of consulting firm... it's not.

Someone I know worked there and struggled to find exit opps. Ended up going to a not well known boutique for questionably low comp

Salaries are also low. Manager only clears ~100k and it’s not really consulting - I doubt you could exit to T2/MBB, let alone Big4

The job is cold calling and emails. Many former interns have good opportunities but can't speak to FT though.

If you are looking to cold-call and email people, it would be a good job. I'm not too sure it should be considered "consulting" though.

Any thoughts around how to use M&A tax skills for the better good? I’m a CPA and originally got into this for a stable / interesting job, but in the long-term I’d like to do something that either influences drafting of tax legislation or helps the public (however naive that may sound). Perhaps I’ve gotten too introspective during the pandemic. Don’t really want to go back for a JD and aside from keeping a roof over my head I’m not very motivated by money. Anyone else have similar ideas?

I'm freelancing now which has been a great step in the right direction but I'd eventually love to be on staff at a post house like The Den, Cut+Run, Company 3 etc. pumping out cool work. Just seems hard to break in.
