Business Outlook
Pros
Build up quant skills, and billing model allows for flexibility in work-life balance. Good primer for how to work in a professional consulting firm, and decent training in Excel, Powerpoint, SAS. Great connections with faculty at leading business schools.
Cons
Driven by billing model (bill as many hours as you can) rather than doing high-value work. Many tasks were encouraged to be done in a tedious manner rather than spending the time to develop a scalable, elegant solution (which earns less for the company).
