Pros

Pretty good name on the resume; pay is reasonably good, expense policy is pretty good as well

Cons

Work is repetitive and boring. Regardless of hours worked, 8 hours a day are billed, and partners are not (AFAIK) penalized for understaffing projects and churning through the juniors in order to close deals at a price point that works. Promotion is highly political.
