Pros

to succeed at this job, you will need to work hard. However, it has been one of the most rewarding job ever. Like all management consulting jobs, it is very intellectually stimulating.

Cons

You will have to travel. I traveled for about 80% of my cases. It suited me fine in the beginning, but later on I decided I wanted a more stationary job.
