Pros

Great to work with other recent college grads, you'll make a lot of friends Decent pay out of college Workload isn't terrible Great volunteer opportunities There are a lot of problems that need to be fixed... if you're halfway intelligent you'll get exposure and the chance to fix them

Cons

-Terrible culture -Despite the fact that they promote "great career development opportunities" there are none management is hired from the outside or spread around to current management -Worcester may be the worst city in the world -Company is totally disconnected with current industry trends and refuses to accept that -Proprietary system was built in the 70's (think MS-DOS). Have fun doing any decent analysis -Rotating through positions? Prepare to become a professional report runner -Recognition is based on how much you whine. Do bad work and whine a lot? Get a big bonus and the chance to travel internationally. Do great work quietly? Get a Hanover emblazoned lunch box. -Company has no idea how to retain young talent- makes excuses for those that leave -If you're "early in career" and you're not an FLP, prepared to be passed over and ignored (This coming from an FLP...) -Useless job requirements (tests, classes, etc)
