Pros
All pros have now disappeared after covid. No pros of consulting exist anymore. Firm is exceptionally slow to adapt to changes and does not value employee wellbeing either.
Cons
Extremely long working hours (70-80 hour weeks) Work on weekends (Almost every weekend barring a few) Very limited exits to industry even after 2-3 years Inconsiderate project management and principals Keep understaffing consultants on projects and burning them out Outdated work knowledge Extremely long tenures on a single project (9-12 months on same project, not typical in consulting at all) Extremely high attrition since partners and principals do not listen to consultants when they voice their concerns but pretend to care during annual surveys and upward feedbacks
