Pros

-White shoe firm -Exposure to senior executives in a range of industries -Steep learning curve

Cons

- Appalling work-life balance when on projects - Difficult to get staffed exclusively in the industry one is most interested in. Typically one is assigned without much regard to one's preferences - Staffing system is inefficient. Currently the firm is suffering from a dearth of projects and far too many consultants are on the proverbial beach
