Pros

Flexibility. Many offices are non-hierarchical. Competence and talent of colleagues, especially senior managers. Opportunities for growth are impressive in the Business Consulting practice. Opportunities to switch offices, even international transfers, are possible. Professional development has improved significantly over the past three years.

Cons

Assignments internationally are far better than in the US. Practices other than Business Consulting are dry and academic with less opportunities for growth.
