Pros

Learn a lot Great colleagues Tax free compensation Brand name Introduction to management consulting Great international ATK network Lots of frequent flier miles and hotel loyalty points

Cons

Excessive travel (4-days/week every week) No work/life balance Limited training Poor management <-- cannot stress this point enough! High turnover (think revolving door) Stress If you are a male you will probably be working/living in Saudi Limited opportunities for some to transition projects - people working on same project for 2+ years! Poor track record of success in the region - Ask around about a certain petrochemical client of theirs STAY AWAY FROM THIS OFFICE - PICK ANOTHER ATK LOCATION - ATK IN DUBAI IS TERRIBLE!
