Pros

Constantly reorganizing internally to mix up departments, and combine capabilities. Solid vacation package and the employee stock option plan can really pay out. Good work life balance. Great corporate values

Cons

Cash bonus structure weak compared to other consulting firms.

Pros

- Great co-workers at my level and below. - My manager was very open to ideas and allowed many people in our group to test our boundaries, grow our skills, and try out new processes. - Good benefits (401K, ESOP, vacation, etc.) - Generous with reimbursement for classes, professional organizations, etc. - Many opportunities to learn new skills and grow (though not always career wise) - Quick reimbursement for travel expenses (one of the quickest I've seen)

Cons

- Dysfunctional organization. I was bounced through several VPs and divisions while I was there, even though I never changed job titles. I was never quite sure which part of the organization I would be part of next. - Very poor compensation for the work. Leaving I immediately gained $20k in salary and everyone else I worked with did the same. - They go through Project Managers like most people go through tissues. - Nepotism is alive and well there. Saw multiple examples of it during my tenure. - Always asked for opinions and advice of staff, and then never used any of it. - Turnover was high and competent people were often let go for petty reasons.
