Pros

Great benefits, (75% tuition reimbursement), flex schedules, and great people. Great company to work for no matter what stage you are in your career. A great place to start out if graduating (they have a specific recruitment program for interns/new-grads) or if you’re returning to the workforce (a reboot/Reentry program if you have been out of the workplace for awhile).

Cons

Can be long hours. Comes with the territory of consulting though. Vacation/sick time is standard and holidays are the minimum amount allowed by US government.
