Pros

Top people, high-profile cases, international opportunities, great door opener in your CV.

Many consultants use this to switch from Management Consulting to working for one of their former clients.

Cons

Long hours, often repetitive and tedious work, stress, out-of-town cases demanding you spend 4 nights a week living in a hotel
