Pros

Great First job out of college. Great work atmosphere. Understanding towards work / personal balance. Focused on developing employees and allowing them to grow as people. Intense focus on training.

Cons

Heavy amount of travel in most positions. Weren't always pushed to succeed due to position structure. Company began a tendency towards firing consultants after a couple of years in order to hire new consultants fresh out of college at a lower pay.

Pros

Good Culture, decent pay, not overworked too much.

Cons

Repetitive, meaningless, and boring work, hard to pivot out of this career once started. Also, the consulting career feels like such a fake job at times. Doesn't feel like real work. Makes you question your life decisions. I'd recommend any college grads to think about their future career goals first before joining. I joined on a whim and wish I spent more time interviewing. It's been incredibly difficult to pivot out of internal audit and sox compliance once you are in it. However, if you are really good at corporate politics and advocating for yourself you may be able to pivot out of the IAFA solution . However, not sure how that lends it self if you want to leave the company.
