Pros

- great people in every office that are down-to-earth, very approachable, and hard-working - very well liked by clients, especially on a personal level, which increasingly helps win business - flat hierarchies with many partners that make time to answer questions and chat - allows for fast career progression if performance and network is good - on a tremendous growth trajectory, gaining share from MBB, on track to double in size by 2020 while staying profitable - early exposure to C-suite if you proof yourself

Cons

- travel (national staffing, some global if requested) and working hours, although this very much depends on project and team, which you can influence quite a bit - although better than in any corporate treadmill, training and development is limited due to size - retirement contribution is weak if you don't stay for at least 3-5 years - alumni network needs improvement
