Pros

I work in ATKearny Shanghai office,as a part time assistant. I have chance to get involved in project shoulder by shoulder with professional consultants. It's competitve to have the employer's name on your resume when you're searching for a full-time job after graduation.

Cons

Long hours and intense job amount. Working on a consulting project usually requres very intense involvement, from the project managers to part-timer. I used to work 90 hours/week as a student temp. It's really not that good for one's health.

Pros

If you’re fresh out of school and don’t have a specific skill and don’t know what to do, and you’re willing to be a yes man then yes it might be a good place to figure out your next step.

Cons

- Lack of pipeline for certain practices (and they will blame that on you saying your utilization is low but there’s nothing you can do at an associate level) - Full of people that feel good about themselves but they actually knows nothing about how actual industry work - No talent - Management will give you vague feedback that you can’t act on, For example, I got asked to “elevate the deck” but when I asked is it the messaging or is it the format etc they can’t give me anything specific - The expectation on work quality is inconsistent - Some manager level people can’t do excel which is shocking - You need to be a people pleaser in order to get promoted
