      Pros

      You'll get beefy projects that are important right from the start. They don't mess around and give you trivial work. The pros of this is obvious: you won't be bored, you'll have opportunities to learn and grow,, and you'll make a pretty good amount right after college.

      Cons

      The downside of course is that you'll often work long hours. People are expected to come in at 8:30 (others are 7:30 AM), and expected to work until 7 PM.

      Pros

      It is a large firm, which can provide exposures to various department and job functions. It is a not bad place to start your career especially when you are out of school.

      Cons

      Compensation is low compared to peer group. As a large corporation, it has a lot of inefficiency and politics. Sometimes, hard to figure out business reasons behind decision.
