Pros

Benefits package is great when you first start out of college. Great training opportunities, and looks GREAT when interviewing for other jobs after.

Cons

Such a large company that your manager most likely won't be in the same location as you. It is difficult to get that professional career growth when your immediate manager doesn't see you day to day work.

Pros

Great opportunities of work, and a wonderful culture of knowledge sharing.

Cons

Consultants first-line management is constantly changing, which makes difficult to keep your career plan interests, as well as being fairly recognized. Excessive use of internal controls affects project managers productivity, as well as IBM internal information systems that still lacks integrity, promoting redundance in many of these controls.
