Pros

There is occasional free food

Cons

Absolute worst people I've had the unfortunate experience of working with. People are incompetent and have egos for no reason. I've seen significantly more prestigious places where the people are not as stuck up. This place is not a consulting firm but rather a body shop. This firm is literally all back office/operations work. If you have any personal respect, you should not work here. It is clear that there is no real knowledge of the industry and there is certainly no value added to clients either. For anyone that is trying to pursue a career in consulting, this place is not for you.

Pros

Varied client work — Different clients and project types, which keeps things interesting. Real project mobility — You can move between projects when you advocate for yourself (within reason). Approachable leadership — Senior leaders are open to conversations if you reach out. Good development resources — Plenty of training and growth opportunities if you take advantage of them. Strong teams — Colleagues are smart, capable, and great to work with. Entrepreneurial environment — New ideas are encouraged, and there’s room to take initiative.

Cons

Long hours vary by project — Like most any professional job, some engagements require extended hours for prolonged periods, but work–life balance really depends on the client and team. Additional internal responsibilities — Depending on level, there can be a significant amount of firm‑support work outside of client delivery. Domain alignment not guaranteed — You may not always be staffed on projects that match your domain expertise. Coaching alignment constraints — Coaching relationships are tied to domain, which limits flexibility in choosing formal mentors. Long engagements (sometimes) — Some projects run for long durations or through multiple extensions. It can provides stability but may reduce variety in client and project experience depending on what you’re looking for.
