Pros

Working with some brilliant and considerate colleagues.

Cons

Avoid this place unless you are ambitious about succeeding in the consulting field or purely desperate. If this is your first professional job, or if you are transitioning from another industry, do your due diligence first to understand how the utilization system works. You will be told that there are many different aspects of success beyond utilization, but in practice there are not. Before deciding to join, ask your hiring manager how much utilization you may realistically expect from the projects he or she expects to bring in during your first year. If your hiring manager does not seem to have a clear picture of this, they should not be allowed to hire direct reports. You may still accept the offer even if your manager does not have a clear utilization plan for you, but in that case, consider the role closer to a contractor position than a genuine FTE role.
