Pros

Pay and benefits are good.

Cons

Top heavy company that works anyone under senior management to the bone. Company is constantly acquiring other companies to keep stock looking good, but spends relatively little time, money or effort on companies after they have been absorbed. Trying to find answers is next to impossible. Big opportunities to fail, very little feedback.

Pros

You will be working with great minds. People have their niches expertise and it’s wonderful to learn from them. Very professional and respectful behavior. Doesn’t feel like other consulting firms where you’re worked like a dog.

Cons

Sometimes it’s hard to build consistent work because people tend to hold on to their projects rather than transferring to junior staff and it’s mainly because the pressure to be billable is high.
