Pros

Frat life like atmosphere with young/engergetic people, good happy hours. You get exposure to project mgmt , many industries. Something great clients in exciting locations, otherwise your are small town USA with good people. You will get to work in diverse range of projects (sometimes) and this will help you hone in on your long term career goals. for example when you see another job you envy or client it helps you better understand your long term career goals. You learn effective ways to tackle tough problems . When you move on you will look like a super star for coming with inventive solutions (when really you have done it before) You learn to make great deliverables in a short period of times and learn to work under pressure.

Cons

- Lots of hours/ eating billable time work life balance Incompetent Mgmt IT audit focused firm Unable to deliver solutions since mgmt rarely understand anything but IT Audit

Pros

Compared to other consulting firms, the flexibility in the management here has been amazing. In my experience, teams do whatever they can to get the job done but also acknowledge that we have lives outside of work and are accommodating to that.

Cons

Pay is not competitive compared to other consulting firms and leadership is not as innovative as they could be.
