Pros

Other departments respect you because you have a bachelor's degree.

Cons

You are expected to work long hours daily. otherwise you'll be branded as inconsiderate and lazy! Seniors were hostile and management demands were unreasonable! It isn't enough to say work was stressful, it's even more than exhausting and draining! Working here had been brutal!

Pros

I work directly with excellent people. My immediate colleagues are collaborative, capable, and committed to doing high-quality work for clients.

Cons

The biggest challenges tend to come from the corporate side of the organization. Corporate processes and communication can sometimes feel disconnected from the needs of project teams, which creates unnecessary friction. In addition, benefits that were once stronger, including 401(k) matching and medical coverage, have been significantly reduced. A recent example is the increased emphasis on “utilization rates” in merit increases. While utilization is understandable in a consulting environment, tying it too heavily to merit can effectively penalize employees for using earned vacation time and can make PTO feel less like a real benefit.
