Pros

Opportunity to excel in many topics or a niche topic. Interesting, innovative, challenging projects so one is never bored. Collaborative teams and consistent learning from events, conferences, webinars, speakers. Pay for graduate degree (1 class/year if you pass). Incredibly devoted employees.

Cons

Painfully subjective salary, bonus, and promotion systems based on line manager, service line, and threats to depart company. Exhausting pace of work burns out hardest workers with little to no reward. KKR buy out changed company from warm and congenial to cold and competitive. Company expects volunteering and internal engagement but only rewards for billability. Your best is never enough. Goal posts keep moving.

Pros

Cool projects. Diversity of work

Cons

Basically every 15 minutes need to be billed to a client. If not you will be penalized even if they say you’re doing great.
