Pros

Excellent facilities and benefits, really intelligent coworkers, and the opportunity to work with incredible clients. It is no doubt challenging, and if you don't manage your time well you will work a lot. Done right, though, it's great. I'm never bored and it's exciting (as someone relatively early in their career) to provide advisory services to executives. At least a couple times a week I hear from a client how much my job means to them and makes a difference.

Cons

As mentioned in the pros, the workload is tough. If you have a full territory, you'll be on the phone with 4-6 members a day which is no small feat considering all the prep and follow up work required outside of the calls themselves. Definitely metrics over mission, which can be tough to get other internal partners (read: sales) to understand when our metrics are so different (and often opposite from them).

Pros

Being a globally recognized company makes it easy to consistently engage clients. Great benefits. Amazing people (managers and colleagues) For the most part there is a clear path to success and promotions. Executives listen to feedback after every internal call to help guide strategy.

Cons

In office mandate increasing in office days from once a month to once a week. Need to live in Florida or Texas because of the in office mandate. Promotions take a while since there are many people going for the same roles. Hard to reach clients and constant territory’s shifting makes it difficult to achieve the numbers you and management expect.
