Pros

-Mix of project oppertunites. You can work on a technology project for a while, then move to a business consulting project. -As with any consulting firm, your life is pretty dynamic and always intesting. -You can advance quickly if you have a skill set.

Cons

-Skillsets are built with experience, and it can be difficult to find a consistant line of work. -As with any consulting firm, the project comes first when work/life balance is involved. You'll be asked to cancel personal things on a moments notice to keep the client happy. -You've got to work very had to build personal relationships with the movers and shakers to ensure you have consistant work. -No utilization bonus' -Poor internal communication within the company. You won't know what projects are starting up, which ones are finishing, or who can help you with what.

Pros

Pretty flexible. It's cool if you get on a project with a good client, because honestly you will become like a low-class employee at that company who they all dont care about and expect you not to be around very long so if you can deal with that then you can try and have a good time with them.

Cons

Honestly can't believe the audacity and entitlement of the middle management at this place. For example, last year everybody got about 3% merit raises (not at all keeping up with inflation but still something). This year, they were working with the same pool of funds to work with for raises, but made a "business decision" to consolidate the raises to only management. The rest of us got nothing. And the TOLD us they kept everything for themselves. And in addition to that, they twisted the knife by COMPLAINING to the whole department on a department call that their bonuses weren't enough. Just tone-deaf and careless mostly.
