Pros

Great portfolio of clients, and the opportunity to work alongside talented people. Also, lots of opportunity to get exposed to world-class organizations and people.

Cons

If you're a 30-something white female, this is for you. Apply for a job and you'll be hired if you have a decent resume. If, on the other hand, you're white male in his 40s or 50s, regardless of your background, don't bother. Every new hire is a young woman in her late 20s or 30s. Literally. For proof, see the New York Corporate practice's highlight reel presented at its annual team meeting this week. This clever eight-minute video featured 13 different account people talking about their success stories. And every single one of them was a woman, ranging in age between early 30s and early 40s. No men. This lack of gender diversity is painful in client presentations when we go in with an account team of four or five women, which is no less painful than walking in with an all-white account team.

Pros

Interns are exposed to a lot of different tasks and experiences. They value their interns and always make sure to incorporate them into company culture. It's a well-known name that is respected and will help you jumpstart your career.

Cons

Hard to escape the intern "cycle" or "trap."
