Business Outlook

Pros

good social environment, fun colleagues, opportunity for networking, growing practice, ex-Big 4 colleagues

Cons

limited assignments/projects, mostly IT staff augmentation roles (business analyst, project manager) vs. strategic, longer term projects. not a lot of opportunities for growth or upward mobility; you and most of your colleagues will have the same title ("consultant") even if you have 10+ more years experience. Hard to distinguish yourself across a sea of similar people doing similar work.
