Pros

Pockets of high-quality talent if you are willing to seek it out.

Cons

Classic hypocrisy in operating model: they sell employers their expertise in HR matters like "employee engagement," all the while exploiting the employees' talents with empty promises of advancements that never seem to come. Promotional decisions seem to be done in the mode of a fraternity rather than a business. By the time you realize you've been duped, you have given up valuable years and passed up other opportunities.

Pros

Varied clients, Opportunity to work with different industries, Good name recoginition in the HR space

Cons

Firm does not practice what it preaches. Conducts and publishes research and consults on how to engage employees, be a 'best place to work" but does not follow own advice. In a professional services firm the #1 assett is the people -- but these people are working with outdated phone and computer systems, legacy "cliques", poor staffing model (several people have to burn out/quit before replacing)
