Pros

Analysts and Junior level staff have the opportunity to contribute and engage in useful discussion with senior employees and clients.

Cons

Due to the small size of the company relative to other consultancies, sometimes it appears to be quite under-staffed when several projects are one in the same period and it appears over-staffed when there are no projects aroun.
