Pros
Analytic Partners is a company that continues to grow because of the quality of its work and its consultants delivering new and innovative work. There is no cookie-cutter work - this is customized analytics and consulting work. Clients swear by the company. It's an opportunity to work with really good, personable, smart people. The company rewards good work and hard work. Promotions don't wait until openings, you get promoted when you show you have the qualifications required. The people at Analytic Partners really take pride in their work. It's an attitude that starts with the company leadership and filters through to everyone in the organization. The work is project-based with the work happening in-house (vs. at client site). There is a lot of variety in the work with very interesting, very high-profile clients (Fortune 100).
Cons
Consulting is not for everyone: it is for those who seek a work-hard, play-hard atmosphere. People need to be well-rounded to succeed given the in-depth analytics and client responsibilities. This job has a really steep learning curve - it is not for those that seek a position for 12 months as a stepping stone to something else.
