Pros

· High salary · Smart colleagues · Team events, retreats · Other benefits

Cons

· 12+ hours of work a day · Nature of projects vary depending on office clients (meaning you could be stuck in boring stuff for a while if you are not lucky and play your cards well) Advise for future associates out there: This is not job for everyone (I don't mean that you can't do it, it is just that you will not enjoy it/you will be unhappy), make sure you speak to other people (the more, the better) doing the role in the office you join to get a full picture of how things are before you join
