Pros
A good place to learn some new skills. Able to work independently. Some performance managers are really great, however their enthusiasm gets hampered by the leadership. Co-workers are pleasant to work with. Social outings are nice.
Cons
Work/Life balance can be poor for staff in consulting roles. Lack of real advancement...just because you went from consultant to sr. consultant, to manager really doesn't mean anything. A lack of a unified vision between teams and departments really keeps the practices and products from improving. If you're hired, once the "honeymoon phase" is over, unless you've made it into one of the cliques, you're pretty much parked.
