Pros

The work is interesting and there is no shortage of it!

Cons

- Promise of meritocracy is a lie. Promotions are nearly 100% based on how well your CA argues for you. - All kinds of promises are made about how they'll grow you as a technologist. Take it with a grain of salt. - The most important thing is billable time. Be prepared for that culture.

Pros

People are friendly and generally helpful. Managers are generally open to allowing consultant level employees to take on more responsibility.

Cons

Work is not strategy-focused and most projects require little to no actual "analysis". You will likely be staffed on either software selection projects or technology implementation. Neither of which will really set you up well experience wise for an MBA if that is what you're seeking in the future. You are much more of an IT consultant than a management consultant, so beware if you are more interested in topics like sourcing, engineering standards, process optimization, or even big data strategy. If you are a full stack developer, consider working at a tech firm vs. consulting, because you will get more interesting applications than web portals. The analytics practice does primarily data warehousing and reporting, so very seldom will clients look to you for insights or recommendations.
