Pros
Learned a lot from many different actuaries, good exposure to different types of actuarial work.
Cons
Way too much focus on billable hours, too much negative office gossip and negative support for passing exams. No training in this position (because training can't be billed to a client). No support for office camaraderie because you cannot bill that time to a client. Once people start to dislike you (for whatever reason) you will get disciplined for all kinds of things even though everyone else does the same thing. The biggest surprise to me is that at this location management actively tries to stop their aspiring actuaries from taking and passing exams. You would think a consulting company would highly encourage exam progress because they could charge more for your time once you achieve your designation, but I find the exact opposite to be true. I have been told on numerous occasions that I should not take exams and that I should spend more overtime working as opposed to studying. I recommend not working here unless you are okay with being treated like dirt for the first five to ten years. After you make it through the first ten years and are a consultant, you are pretty much worshipped, so I suppose that isn't so much a con.
