      Pros

      - Good benefits - Great people - Travel opportunities

      Cons

      Level of satisfaction will depend a lot on which practice you go into. Additionally, being staffed on a good client goes a long way. During the recruitment process, they will lead you to believe that even if you start out in one business area that you are able to move around to other practices based on your skills and interests; however, this is more difficult than they will make it sound. The work on the IA side is not exciting or fulfilling, and it is easy to get pigeonholed into only IA/SOX projects if you are not careful. Ordinarily, this would not be an issue as you would develop expertise in a subject area. The problem is that the skill set associated with IA/SOX doesn't really translate to anything other than IA/SOX. Would lean toward defining this role less as "Consulting" and more audit which was not quite what I expected.

      Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear that it was not as easy for you to transfer into other practice areas while you were here. We work hard to support our people in their career goals and help them move into the work that both interests them most and is aligned with our business needs. We have heard both from our interns and consultants that they would prefer to get a variety of project experiences, so we are launching the Foundations program next year. We are excited about this new program and the visibility it will give to our new hires across varying experiences. We wish you all the best. Please keep in touch!

      Pros

      Good Culture, decent pay, not overworked too much.

      Cons

      Repetitive, meaningless, and boring work, hard to pivot out of this career once started. Also, the consulting career feels like such a fake job at times. Doesn't feel like real work. Makes you question your life decisions. I'd recommend any college grads to think about their future career goals first before joining. I joined on a whim and wish I spent more time interviewing. It's been incredibly difficult to pivot out of internal audit and sox compliance once you are in it. However, if you are really good at corporate politics and advocating for yourself you may be able to pivot out of the IAFA solution . However, not sure how that lends it self if you want to leave the company.
