Pros

- Great people to work with, down to earth - Great can-do attitude, does well for clients - Working better on work-life balance

- New leadership is implementing growth strategy with no vision. Hiring outside talent while current leaders are leaving - Starting to have lots of politics and dissatisfaction

Pros

Pretty good name on the resume; pay is reasonably good, expense policy is pretty good as well

Cons

Work is repetitive and boring. Regardless of hours worked, 8 hours a day are billed, and partners are not (AFAIK) penalized for understaffing projects and churning through the juniors in order to close deals at a price point that works. Promotion is highly political.

A good sourcing shop

Pros

The Comp is good up to the manager level, where it is then significantly below market-value.

Cons

Where to start? Expect them to layoff 10% of the workforce at mid-year and then blame you for it. If you want sourcing/procurement work this is the place. Partners aren't selling so layoffs and RIFs are the future of A.T. Kearney Terrible work-life balance, Partners care more about the font of the footnote on your page than that you are actually delivering value.
